I've got a rather down-at-heel Morgan Giles 30 stuck in a yard at Poole Harbour. She's a lovely old girl, but she's got a few problems.

1) Gelcoat has been stripped and needs refinishing
2) The internal chain plates have rusted and need replacing
3) The decks are balsa cored and there has been some water ingress, leading to point 2 above.
4) A thorough cosmetic and gear overhaul is required
It's all relatively straightforward DIY, but there's lots of it and I don't have the time. Sadly, the inclination is fading too, as I've moved on to a project that's bigger and scarier!
So where's the best place to advertise something like this? I guess she's a 'modern classic', with lovely lines by Morgan Giles but I don't think the purists would agree, so Classic Boat probably isn't the right place. New boaters seem to want AWBs, brokers wouldn't appreciate her either, and sticking the poor old gal in Exchange and Mart seems a little tawdry...
Any ideas?
