Classic Phantom wanted

[neil]

OK, Finn sailors please avert your eyes.

As the CVRDA is now piloting the inclusion of several new classes by changing the eligibility criteria I'm now in the market for a classic Phantom.

I'm doing the usual trawl through Class Association / eBay / Gumtree etc but if you happen to see a for sale post on your sailing club noticeboard or know of any boats for sale can you please drop me a line. I'm fine with a project.

thanks

Neil

OK, I appear to have bought a Phantom, sight unseen. The only downside is it is in Sevenoaks and doesn't have a trailer.

Bit of a long shot, but does anyone have a trailer for sale?

£100 off FaceBook, I'll take a risk on the decks so have bought without seeing, reckon it's worth the risk though. GRP hull - one of only a few GRP hulls built before the 1990s. Is complete and hopefully will be sorted so I can do a couple of CVRDA events next year. Clywedog here we come.

Zenith is going to be a while as I have a full house to modernise so I'm hoping the Phantom won't take too long to get back on the water.

Not a problem Neil. It was serviced and had new hubs and bearings fitted this year.

I'll make sure it get cleaned to remove any Phantom DNA from it

I'm sure it's not catching.
