July 13, 20178 yr I have acquired a old ? Vane A boat called Mandy sail number K1120I think she has just been used as as display in some ones house for last few years so not sure if she is complete but appears to be.Does any one know anything about her and more importantly would any one be interested in partnering up with me to get her back sailing and maybe try a few events if she can be made class legal (I have no idea how to free sail so would definitely be crew)Garry
July 13, 20178 yr Hi Garry, Mandy was owned by Joe Sixsmith of the Birkenhead club, she had a very short overall length if I remember correctly. Dave Potter also sailed her a few times and if I remember on I will dig out a great photo I have of her sailing downwind towards the clubhouse with full spinnaker and Dave in hot pursuit with pole in hand.
