Thanks Darin

Brand new to IOM sailing/racing and looking for a relatively local but active club in the north Wiltshire area. Must have active IOM sailing. All advice welcome Paul

I am wondering if it is squire Kay's prototype for sea scamp as it appears to have been owned by squire Kay himself so could date back to 1991 which is right at the dawn of the IOM class. Does anyone have pictures because I think this might be worth restoring to its original configuration.

There is a label on the radio pot with the name S Kay and a Chorley telephone number very old as it's only 5 digits. I've done a bit of checking and there is a squire Kay who was a member of a thriving model boat club. Still no nearer to identifying what the design is though.

Hi Have got my hands on an old IOM (i think) but not sure what it is. All ideas welcome - I think its a very early IOM. GRP hull, label says Squire Yachts and Sails, no hull l number, copyright sticker inside but no other information. Last raced in St Austell, Cornwall. A label on the radio pot suggesting it was owned by someone in Lancashire. Has a carbon fin and rudder. The plan is to learn how to sail this while building something a little more in vogue over the winter. Paul Barton North Wiltshire
