History
Purchased by Roger Puttman July 2016. Since then she has had extensive work including: over 25 frames sistered, new cockpit, engine removed and replaced with a water tank (as per the original design it turns out) new rubbing strakes, new decks, chain plates replaced and placed outboard. Origo stove fitted in the cockpit. Work performed by Tony O’Connor.
Extra information
She can get under the bridges at Fremantle at mid to low tide. Not a racer by any stretch but is dry and rides well.
