On eBay April 2022 with a starting bid of £250. Located Beaconsfield.

Sold May 2021 to Jonathan Grenter; based at LLynfi Holiday park near Llangorse lake where she will be subject to further cosmetic restoration and used for pottering about on the lake. Pictures show Sting as at May 2021 prior to sale.

Here is the picture referenced above in the first link. The other links appear "dead".

Have put it in the diary. Something to look forward to!

Looking for a home on Social Media, October 2020, by Warsash Sea Scouts.

For sale on Apollo Duck August 2020, located in North Yorkshire.

For sale on eBay August 2020, ad says located in Sudbury, Suffolk.

Appeared for sale in July 2020 in a rather sorry state. Ad threatened to burn her if no takers!

Being offered for "Free" on Social Media in August 2020.

Turned up on Social Media in August 2020 in a very sorry state.

Hi All,
Have posted in the Ads section but no luck yet. I really need  an old combi trailer for my Paper Dart, N2679. I wont be able to keep her at the Club this winter as they have a new Comet fleet taking priority for under cover winter storage, so she needs to come home at the end of the season, but I cant really justify the cost of a new combi! So a plea for help...there must be dozens of old combi's suitable for a National 12 lying around in the dinghy parks across the country? Please let me know...if you have one, know of one, or where to go look for one!
PS Really after a combi, rather than a single trailer (which I have already been offered) as the trolly I have is also on its last legs...so two birds with one stone etc...
Many Thanks
Ed

Hi Paul,
Many thanks for the update on Dolly Blotter, really appreciated! Do you have any background on how John chose the name? ( I could guess but better to be informed). I notice also that Rob Peebles won the Midland Junior Trophy in her in 1974. FYI I was sailing her just yesterday and she really is still a delight to sail.
Best Wishes
Ed

Spotted whilst on holiday in the Isles of Scilly, now called "Fraggle" and resident on the small island of Bryher. Appears in good condition, all dry and no rot, and located in an absolutely idyllic place to sail!
