SHE 9.5 Traveller

[david42]

Has anyone got any yarns about owning/sailing/buying a SHE 9.5 traveller?

Not a 9.5 - but we do have a She 31b - very similar -

We bought her in February, as a total project, finally managed to get her safe to launch by June (so useable but only just!).

However, the first time we sailed her (on baggy 30 yr old sails & untensioned rigging) we thought we'd died and gone to sailing heaven. She is truly awesome.

She certainly doesn't have the accommodation of more modern 30 footers (or even some contemporary ones) - infact our friends have just bought a 22' Westerly that is almost as big! But we are very pleased, she's big enough for us & we sail with two small kids & numerous toys, books & accompanying toot. I think the 9.5 is slightly bigger.

Hope that helps
