I still own 3177 Roadrunner, which I designed and built in 1981/2. She is in excellent condition, having been?stored indoors, when not afloat,for the past 32 years. My wife and I were beginners to dinghy racing when I designed and built Roadrunner, but we survived several Burton Weeks in the 1980s. I've put a photo in the gallery of us on a steep learning curve at the Exmouth Burton Week, late 80s. Our son has told me that the one item he?must inherit from us is Roadrunner, in which he and I raced many times. Nick |

The hull is cold moulded from two layers of 3mm Gaboon veneer, formed over a softwood plug I constructed. |
