I have recently aquired 3456 and plan to sail her at Clyde Cruising Club. She was built by Marcus Wheel in 2000 and as far as i know hasnt been sailed much for a couple of years.  Currently in the garage getting a few coats of white paint and a varnish.  Hopefully she'll be out and about on the Scottish and northern circuits.  Ill upload some photos as soon as shes all finished.

Rather belatedly I should report that I acquired 3456 in November 2009 and trailered her from Glasgow to Hertfordshire. The routine re-paint and varnish, originally planned to be completed by April 2010, is still underway - usual story; too many boats, too little time. She will be back on the water this year......promise! Haven't yet mastered how to post photos either!
