I saw them at lunchtime and told them about you. They absolutely love the boat and she sails as well as ever!

Is there a resurgence of interest in the class going on? We’ve started seeing them everywhere again. 3 in our harbour, picked up a boat in the Hamble with 1 next door, 2 visible from the ferry in Lymington. I always admired them, it’s kind of nice to see the names I remember from an almost byegone era.

Not seen one in decades, now there are two in a Canary Island marina!

I used to race one 9n the Clyde and I really enjoy sailing them. Fab boats in my opinion.

They're of a price where younger racers can club together and own a reasonable boat. I know a couple of syndicates, one of which wants to do Fastnet this year, but need to check the 33 is still allowed.
