I might be guessing wrong, but this boat did get rebuilt as a lift keel (as opposed to lift plate) 282! And a very nice boat it now is! T

Hi, I have modified and rebuilt a drop keel 282 (as opposed to a centre board which the original really is) for the area I live in, and can let you know about the boat if you still need? I am 6-4 and for a 28ft boat the room is phenomenal and with decent kit it makes a very nice small cruising...

I have a socket on a one meter flying lead doubled into my own shorepower lead. That enables anyone to piggy back and when sockets are short and my lead is usually the last one someone pulls out when I'm not about! Tim

Thanks for looking! Did you pick brochures up at a show or from the people selling her, is so have you any other info on them? Thanks again, Tim

Hi, yes she's in a pickle and needs a thorough going over. Main issue is leaking teak decks, other than re rig, re plumb, and re wire!! T

Hi, yes I bought her a few weeks ago - trying to find out a little about her now! All the best, Timbo

Yes dead on - she was clearly intended to be a production boat given some of the literature, but I can find no trace of her existence elsewhere? Any thoughts? Timbo

Hopefully they are there now?!

Hi, I have recently become the owner of a cobra s42 which appears to be similar to designs by Sparkman and Stevens, and is rather like some from the Swan stable - if only!! Grp, 42ft loa, cutter rigged, built I believe by one of the Taiwan yards in the '80's, I presume sold in the uk by Cobra...

If you get stuck! If it helps, I work at foxsonline (an online chandlery) and deal with NASA gear quite a lot. Nasa are really helpful - but if you do get stuck i'm sure our Electronics department would have the info on file, Let me know here if you need, Good luck, Tim Goodwin
