Hi - I am looking for a clinker built model yacht called Pat. She was built in  Southwold, Suffolk 1920-1930 and was given as a gift to my father. Her hull is 25 inches long. I think she was sold at auction in the last few years. I am keen to find her and if her condition allows, sail her again in the Southwold Model Yacht Regattas again.

Have you thought of contacting Southwold Model Yacht Racing Club? I know that they still race models of local beach boats.

Thanks.  I am a member of SMYR and sail in their regattas. There’s no trace of Pat there!

Claire, 

I edit the Pondside Marketplace newsletter which goes out to all VMYG members listing any boats, books or other items members would like to advertise for sale within the Group.  I have not been asked to advertise a yacht like Pat so I have no idea of its whereabouts but I could put a 'Wanted' advert in the next edition which should go out early in February.  Let me know if you would like me to do this.

Hi Gareth,

That would be brilliant, yes please!

Pat is a clinker built model yacht, built 1920-1930 in Southwold, Suffolk. Her hull is 25 inches long. She was given to my Dad who sailed her as a child. I have sailed her in Southwold Model Yacht Regattas and if her condition allows would like to do so again! 
Pat was sold by Durrant’s Auctioneers in Beecles, Suffolk November 2020 or March 2021.
