Trouble with my Anderson theory is that the mast looks unusually high for such a small boat.

It's what makes them go so fast.

Andersons ?? never heard of them, do they sail well then???

Agree. It is a tall mast. I can't remember the estimate of length that was done at the time.

Berth cushion, nightmare to replace/ cover with original fabric?
Oop's should have read all the posts, before replying.....

Sorry to hear of this Roger, as you know we had two boats that had bunk cushions stolen. I cant remember what colour the second ones were but the cat was blue upholstery. The other boat was on the Stone moorings but I cant remember what was stolen. The thief must be teetotal as he never takes alcohol. Have you checked your food stocks as he has a likening for tinned tuna. Also he tends to take knifes and forks.

If I ever take tinned tuna on board please get me certified! Hate the stuff. No there is no food nor drink taken. Nor knives and forks.

Not getting very far with tracing the original fabric (not surprisingly). Looks like a complete new set of covers.

Perhaps stealing cushions is not that unusual! Thanks for the sympathy; strangely I am pretty calm about it.

Try Anne Rose fabrics on Sheppey. We had two sets made by them and they had a remarkable back catalogue of fabrics. They also do hundreds of caravans and so stock a very large range.

The 'Cheap Shop' in Tiptree ( main road thorugh village) has a huge variety of material . Being an olde worlde type establishmenet who knows what they may have sqirralled (!) away.

Thanks. I'll try those two.

Sorry to hear of your frustrating loss.

And while I'm at it, congratulations on a beautifully maintained looking boat.

That's kind. There are a couple of bits that cosmestically flatter to deceive; rather like the owner!
