194 has been advertised for quite a long period and the owner only received a couple of calls about it, sadly the older girls get little attention and being chopped up and utilised elsewhere is a better end than finding the rubbish fire
eek

Unfortunately not all of us can see or enjoy the potential the older boats can give, Twice Shy for example has been an absolute blast and has taken trophies on several occasions when I was outclassed by far more modern boats..... it can be done but it takes commitment and determination to get there.

Matthew has already found a home for the hulls and they'll be stored for spares or future re-assembly ..... wink

its a good outcome for 194....... I just hope Matthew takes her out for one last broad-reach
