Hello everyone,
I’m researching the early history of my yacht and hoping someone might recognise her.
Boat details:
Contessa 34 (Jeremy Rogers)
Original name: JAMES BOND
Sail number: K 3895
Official number: 700473
Originally sold to: Tri Sail Ltd, Chester
UK Port of registry: Southampton
The yard records also mention Lloyds certificate 210347.
Later known owners include:
Gordon Alexander Gibb (Glasgow)
Alistair Speers (Northern Ireland / France)
The boat is now in the Netherlands and currently named Pegasus, but I intend to restore the original name.
I am particularly looking for:
• early owners or skippers
• race entries or results
• photographs
• confirmation of the original hull number
Given the sail number K3895, I believe she may have raced under the IOR rule in the late 1970s or early 1980s.
If anyone recognises the boat or the company Tri Sail Ltd (Chester) I would love to hear from you.
