Guys,
Neil Fowler designed the Black Witch as the next logical progression for his kids, after all they had come thro' Arafuras, Arrows, Mosquitoes and then I recall them sailing the "witch in darwin.
It was 18ft (from memory) and wider than the mossie, fast and very stable. Also was one still sailing in SA about 10 years ago.
I remember Neil (junior)Fowler having an even bigger "mossie" in his shed in Darwin, about the 24ft mark but don't think it ever made the water.
