A?famous boat and cupwinner that originally belonged to Peter Nicholson of Camper and Nicholson. I bought her from Elaine Tegue in Bucks and she had also been owned by John Deacon, twice I think.
I sailed her in Studland, on the Thames and at Pitsford Resevoir.
I owned her from 1997 to 2006 and sold her with regret after a house move to a gentleman in Rutland.
I would love to buy her back so email me?if she becomes available.

Glad to report N1626 Intuition is back on the water and enjoying a new lease of life as a family dinghy up on the Clyde in Scotland.

Just filling in a gap in the history of Intuition I can report that she sailed in the Earlswood Lakes Vintage 12 Open Meeting in 1994.
