Anyone looking for a little project?

Sailable. Comes with road trailer, launch trolley, storage cover and rigged cover.



No tow hitch on current cars and I'm too old anyway!



Needs TLC regarding deck varnish and parts of hull paint. West Herts. location.


I've not sailed anything that small for about 50 years. Too cold and damp, especially on the Clyde in winter.

If I had a means of towing it, and somewhere sensible to store/sail it, I'd bite Tim's arm off.

You really need a sailing club membership and nearby water. Park up for the season on the launch trolley.

I'm hoping TNP will step forward. Lots of entertainment value seeing it hitched behind his upmarket vehicle:-) Short step across Suffolk and he's got the Broads, Woodbridge or even Southwold on the Blyth. Last outing was Walberswick ferry to the White Hart at Blythborough on the tide. Have to drop the mast for the Bailey bridge.

Lots of similar craft not appearing to sell on e-bay!

T'would be a Miracle if anyone takes that on ;-)

Ha ha!

Nice roomy boat but I have sailed it single handed.

Surely someone has grandchildren needing lessons?

I'd be tempted myself, but I've got too many projects on!

My 'upmarket vehicle' was way cheaper than anyone's BEV.

Short step across Suffolk and

Waterbeach sailing club is in the other direction at Cambridge

I just sold my old Solo to someone to fix for not a lot more than the value of trailer & accessories. Looks like he's doing it too - new floor panels are a bit much for me.

I'll pass this on.

Thanks Andy. I'm not looking forward to an e-bay marketing activity:-(

Hi could be interested, where is it how much do you want for it ? Give me a ring 07775 664104 cheers Graham

Price uncertain:-) I'm watching several similar sales on e-bay to get an idea. Something over £100 anyway.

West of Hatfield and North of St. Albans.
