Hi,
I have owned my boat for over a year now and would like to know if anybody has any info on her.
We have just found out from the brokerage that she is a senator 470, or something on those lines, she is just under 16 feet long, or 4 m, 70 cm to hint the obvious. SHe was built by small craft and as far as I'm aware she was one of the last designs small craft ever made.
I would be intrested to know what their sea keeping abilities are like, I sail her on Windermere but am moving to barrow or Glasson next season and would like to cruise the West of Cumbria.
I would also like to find out how old she is, I made an approximate build date of late 1980s but am probably completely wrong.
Here are some pictures of her:

She really is a beautiful boat, she is very fast, I've recorded a top speed of 8 knots under genoa alone!!!!!
Thanks alot,
Alasdair
