I (David Greening) owned Freefall in the late seventies/early eighties and sailed her at Aldenham Sailing Club with great success.  She originally belonged to designer Phil Morrison and then by Tony James from RHYC.  I sold her to Steve Proctor.
She was built by Jon Turner while he was working for Spud Rowsell and imo was one of the pretiest 12's ever built.  She was very very fast in light winds, I suspect that she would still get great results in drifting conditions.

I note that she has recently been sold on ebay - if the purchaser wishes to pass her on please let me know.
