Half tonners around now for 6-10k and many re-rigged with swept back spreaders so no runner antics required.
For some cheap and cheerful offshore racing is there anything not to like? I'm thinking the later ones from 80s onwards so avoiding the worst of IOR. e.g. MG HS30
I'm interested in how they perform...there seems to be a resurgence, particularly in Ireland for getting these and then tarting them up for the half ton classics, and some have had very substantial amounts of money invested in them.

Yay or nay?
