"National 12 number 945.  Designed and built by Jack Holt.
Bought new in 1951 and still in the same family. 
A beautiful clinker built sailing dinghy which has been kept in a garage since it was last sailed in the 1980's. 
It needs work / varnishing /new rigging to get it back on the water but we believe hull is sound and has no rot.  
Includes original fixtures and fittings (not sure if any are missing) including rudder, centreboard,  wooden mast and boom.  Some removed for varnishing (see pictures). 
No trailer.
Sail (not the original) available."
