Pandora 700 Owners

[James W]

Afternoon all,

I just wondered if anyone had any idea what's happened to the Pandora Owners Association? I'd really like to know more about the Pandora and the owners association was fantastic by all accounts, but there's nothing doing anymore, no website, no contacts.

I know a huge proportion of the Pandora fleet are based in Abersoch and a few small details gleaned from the web, but not much else. I'm looking at a rather nice lifting keel 700 and any info would be much appreciated.

If anyone can help, that would be fantastic,

Thanks,

James

From Memory I think Steve Colclough was the class captain at South Caernarfonshire Yacht Club.

They used to have about 20 registered owners but I think you will find there were less than half a dozen sailing this year.

I seem to remember that Steve Colclough was the manager of the boatyard/shop in Abersoch harbour.

Unfortunately this site doesn't seem to exist anymore.

The forum was very useful and included a register of all known boats.
5 years ago I was quite active with the Pandora fleet here on the east coast but bigger boats took me away.

I have a very nice Pandora 700 for sale as well here at Southwold.
Its not actually advertised as I've never got round to it.

Here she is at Neptune Marina.

Very pretty! Is she fin, bilge or lifting keel?

Lifting keel

Lifting keel

She looks very tidy 'in the flesh' as well - I admired her on a recent visit to Southwold. I used to own a mark 1 bilge keeler and had a lot of fun with that one, but envied the windward performance of the fin keel versions.

Hi James

The site was spammed and the web administrator was trying to get it sorted. However he may have given up.
