Hi, I have just bought a Prelude 19 thats in Poole. I am dissapointed after owning a Saeawych at the lack of info on the web. Are thre any other owners out there? I am looking at putting a web page together but obviously need to find other owners first.....help also, any one owned a swing keel one? is the keel always noisy in its box? /forums/images/graemlins/mad.gif pej_dean@hotmail.com
 
Hi, welcome to the fora.

I can't help on technical info but, a friend of mine bought a swing keel Prelude last year. Yes, the keel does move about in it's box in a bit of a sea. Also the internal bulkhead isn't glassed in and so also makes a bit of noise.

Good fun to sail though /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Hi I am an ex 19 lift keel Prelude owner. Just upgraded this year but had mine for 10 years. I am happy to answer any questions you may have. Note on the starboard side of the keel I found old allen key adjusters to stop the keel rattle. they were rusted in so I drilled them out and put in new ones. it did the trick. jdp_parham@hotmail.com
