Mike Critchlow Posted June 1, 2023 Share Posted June 1, 2023 Hello. Can anyone identify this old IOM please? The owner thinks it is a Widget but I have been reliably informed that it is not. Could it be a Tony Abel, or Oliver Lee design? As it's not my boat I haven't been able to look inside for any clues. Thanks for any help or advice you can provide.

NigelC Posted June 1, 2023 Share Posted June 1, 2023 (edited) Possibly Oliver Lee Tempo? Very old advert below from MYN Sept 1988 Edited June 1, 2023 by NigelC 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Ewart Posted June 1, 2023 Share Posted June 1, 2023 Thanks I have one very similar and agree with the Tempo as being very likely 1 Mike Ewart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 I worked for Oliver Lee at Burnham on Crouch, and can confirm that this is one of many kits I manufactured. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Critchlow Posted May 2 Author Share Posted May 2 Thank you Graham. It's nice to know even though the boat was sold ages ago and I haven't seen it since. Best wishes. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that a model called Goldfinger by any chance? Edited May 6 by JefO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
