Hi Guys, cant seem to register/login to place an advert, so posting here. If anyone wants to copy this to an advert for me, that's great.
National 12 3203 Crusader Design.
Reluctant sail of my lovely all wood N12. She is of crusader design and has a lot of history, check her page.
She is ready to go and still shows a great turn of speed, a real bandit on vintage handicap.
Comes with:
Combi trolley trailer.
2x sets of sails, both in ok condition.
Good top cover.
Ali mast and boom with carbon dangly pole.
All new ropes last season.
Currently set up with off the boom sheeting, but I can convert back to aft main.
A small patch on the rear tank needs re-varnishing, but is purely cosmetic.
£600 for a quick sale. Located Huddersfield, west Yorkshire, but can help with delivery for the cost of diesel.
Sadly I'm moving house and need the funds. Please contact me here or ring me on 07534556898.

Hi Ed,
Great to hear there a few of us with older boats. Such a friendly class already, looking forward to my 1st event. If you could send me those settings that would be great. Venturing out tomorrow for my 1st go, if all goes well, photos will be added to the database too.
 
Thanks all

Hi Antony,
Thanks for all the info, I will see what I can get sorted. Im sure I'll be back to ask questions. Hoping to get to some events, just not sure which ones yet.
Regards

Hi,
Can you send me some phtos of the sails, and an asking price? Where are you based?  
Excellent, if you have any photos of things I will probably have missed Id really appreciate that.
Thanks

Just bought her the other day. Looks good for her age, and I seem to have got her set-up mostly. She will be based at Glossop SC, North Derbyshire along side my RS300. 2 crews lined up and both ready to go, so hopefully out and about soon. Pictures to be added.

Hi Guys and Gals, just bought 3203 Crusader, my 1st 12 I think Ive got her set up reasonably well, but just a couple of questions:
Where do people run their pole line to? Do you split it and take to crew area decks, or just single line in the middle by the mast?
It looks like she had some kind of barber hauler system, instead of adjustable jib cars, any thoughts on this?
Does anyone have any rig numbers, spreader lengths, etc for a 21 ish stone crew weight?
And lastly, though maybe a bit cheeky, does anyone have any 2nd sails going reasonably cheaply? Something that will do the the odd open, but mostly club racing? The sails that came with the boat are ok to get me going, but probably only good for very windy days.
Thanks, looking forward to seeing you all at some events.
