Please note, the working party for Sunday 15th February has been cancelled. This is due to the great progress made at todays endeavor. Many thanks to the people who made the effort to turn up and help bring some TLC to the committee boat. The next scheduled working party is 28th of February, so the more reluctant club members still have a chance to make a positive contribution to TBYC.

Chris

MANY THANKS

SANDHOPPER 10

TRUE BLUE

£ 3500.

SAILING HISTORY

MULTIPLE CLUB SERIES WINS
VERY LITTLE USE IN RECENT YEARS BUT ON LAST 2 OUTINGS WON THE 2007 MBSC OPEN, IN VERY LIGHT AIRS (MATT RAINBOW AS CREW!) & 6TH IN THE 2008 NATIONALS AT BURNHAM

TRUE BLUE, COMES FULLY EQUIPED AND IN GOOD CONDITION FOR ITS YEARS, THE HULL HAS BEEN TAKEN BACK READY FOR NEXT SEASONS COAT OF ANTIFOUL. SAILS (ALL 3 BROUGHT AS A SUIT) ARE LONGTON & GRAY, VERY LITTLE USED AND ARE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. THE RUDDER WAS FINISHED BY ALAN JACKSON OF CHIPSTOW BOATS.
ALSO AVAILABLE FOR SALE IS A GAVANISED SANDHOPPER ROAD TRAILER WITH SIDE & FRONT UPRIGHTS, ALONG WITH A GANTRY ENABLING (WITH THE USE OF A BLOCK & TACKLE) THE BOAT TO BE LIFTED WHILST ON THE TRAILER SO THAT PREPERATION & ANTIFOUL CAN BE APPLIED TO THE BOTTOMS OF THE KIEL & LEGS.

THE REASON FOR RELUCTANTLY SELLING TRUE BLUE IS THAT IT IS A WASTE TO KEEP IT LAID UP (I’M SAILING 707s THESE DAYS) WHEN SOMEONE SHOULD BE SAILING IT.
