For the last 20 years I have been the owner of N2379, Avocet II. 

I rescued her from a bonfire in 2001 and started to restore her, initially replacing her transom and revarnishing her exterior. I've always thought she was a beautiful design with rolled side decks and attractive lines.

After storing her in the dry for the last 23 years I've realised I will never finish the restoration.

I'd happily give her to someone who understands National 12's and would complete the restoration. She needs a new aft buoyancy tank and some replacement timber in her hog.
