John Wills apparently went to the champs and saw Bouncer, took some pics, and came home and built this one for his daughters boyfriend Ross.They sailed it for a number of years, and it was eventually bought by Roger Paddey, remaining with the Portchester fleet. He and I had a numer of successes in it, competing well against the newer Crusaders etc. It did hobbyhorse in a chop, but on smooth water or waves it went well. My first sail in it was 4/1/87, and I last saw it in 1990. |

I think this boat has been in Clevedon Somerset for some years unsailed. |
