The life of N1824 Santy Anna. Design: Mark 9, designed by: Ian Proctor in 1959

Santy Anna was my first Nat 12. She was a very well built and pretty Chippendale hull which I proceeded to destroy by experimenting with all possible gadgets. In spite of all this attention she went superbly in light winds and, combined with my masterly yachtsmanship, was unbeatable to windward in anything under force 4.
As with all Mk9s she was seriously exciting on a dead run in anything of a breeze!
I won a lot of stuff in her including Admirals and Corrigan trophies at the Burton.
Remembered with much affection.

Chris
