This boat was raced at Pitsford in the late 70s/early 80s. A bloke called Trevor Nolten owned and sailed her then sold her to a great and hilarious bloke called Rob Bunten. Sailed her with Rob at the 1983 Burton in Llandudno, our tent was stolen so we lived in his Triumph Dolomite and I recall being thrown through a plate glass window at Tiffanys Wine Bar by a van load of scousers. Happy days.
