I was wondering if anyone else had noticed, perry will be along shortly.

This thread had been fairly quiet until it hit the mid 490s

That looks pretty cool TK,whereabouts were you?

I'd love to see those boats Rob,did a fair bit of racing on the west coast,must admit to loving all things boaty

I will do bud, its just that when you get home from work you canny be bothered
to get off yer ass yeah know what I mean, but I'll get them sorted out.

Here's my first boat it was about 13' clinker built & gunter rigged.





The last one was when I went through my Tom Selleck phase

Ive not found the photos yet of my other boat a International Dragon @ 29' 6" If I remember correctly :roll:

 

[RobMac]

TK the little boat had a Seagull outboard ran like a Swiss watch but was
as tatty as hell

Those dragons are truly beautiful ,there used to be one moored at inverkip many moons ago[about15],like shit off a shovel

That one is in dire need of some blindingly white canvas :?

 

[RobMac]

Ive still got the scale drawings that I bought from the RYA for a accurate
restoration job so that it would still be eligible for racing. Dyna-ti your right about fast it was big but you could push it by hand through the water like a canoe, its was a real classic shape a fine keeled dart :twisted:
