Indeed! Already spotted that one. She appears to have a new trailer. Many happy memories attached to that boat.

Quite a nice looking little boat, might be looking for something like that myself in the near future.

Tim, how would you say it compares to an SR4 in terms of performance and sea-keeping abilities?

I always thought it was quite a capable little boat. My parents and I would often take it on holiday - I can remember the three of us being out in quite choppy weather and we never had any problems.

Here is one of the last times I used her - she made it to the needles without any troube!
