Shaun, Seems okay now.. Richard

I hope you manage to sort the sheeting. The system looks good on mine. As yet untested I have yet to buy any radio gear and batteries. I'm on holiday so I'll sort that when I return. As for sailing it I live near Burnham on sea which is the home of Sedgemoor M B C . Not sure if there are any 6's there. As I walk around the lake often they are often sailing on Sunday mornings. DF's and IOM's.

Okay thanks for the information. I emailed Bill Green this morning. He confirmed it is a "Tern" and said that these were built by Richard Ferreday somewhere in the Solent area. Once it's all up and working I'll sail it before re-finishing the hull the red tape is beging to shrink and look tatty.. Your boat looks terrific.

Hi tiggy-cat thanks for your reply. The pictures do show that the two boats are most likely the same design. I wonder who built them? I know it's a long shot but I hope someone might recognise this boat. Perhaps even have record of a sail number. Thanks again..

Having just retired I decided that radio sailing might be a good idea. The boat pictured was for sale on a well known auction site. The boat is I believe a 6 meter. Design unknown. I have looked at several websites and it appears to look like a Tern. Any further information welcome. It is 59 3/4 inches long. It shows no signs of sail number or any other numbers inside the hull. Probably a professional build. Hull and deck are fiberglass .
