I have been given A NEW FLAME N3343 by the widow of the previous owner who passed away two years ago, i have been a family friend for a number of years and she wanted it to go to a new home.  I have sailed all different types of yachts and dinghys but never a National 12. The boat is in fantastic condition, dry stored for 10 years and not used would like to know a bit more about the boat. ie is it likely to be competitive etc.  Have uploaded some photos. Any info. would be good.

Bought 3343 from Steve last year, now sailing with the kids most Sundays at Spinnaker SC. Boat is sailing well after some work and a tune up over the winter. Briefly led the fleet last week, a new set of sails and you wont see which way we went!!

Bought 3343 in July 23, it had been sat unused in Frampton on Severn sailing club boat park for a few years and its deck and rear tank was beginning to take water damage. It has since been brought back to life and is sailing at Whitefriars sailing club in the Cotswolds alongside a rapidly growing N12 fleet.
