Complex is currently owned by Nick Tyler ( the late Shirley Tylers cousin) who has offered her to Salcombe Yacht Club for the use of members who want to try out a Twelve.

Anyone interested in seeing her, give me a call.

Complex is currently residing between my and Chris Winzar's workshops!

Nick Tyler gave me this Y&Y report when I collected her. Makes interesting reading.

For a 42 year old boat she's not in bad nick. I believe that she has been sailed on the Exe at Lympstone - stickers on the transom bear witness to this - but shes not been on the water for a few years. Looks like the rear tank has been relaced, the hatch covers in the pics don't exist anymore, but apart from that she looks very much like she did in the Y&Y report which I believe dates fron 1965.

We are not sure exactly how she will be used this year - watch this space!

Would that be the bastion of 80's living an Escort XR3?;)

I must point out the Escort was Nigel's..... I was a poor student at the time
