Bought from Steve Sawford 2 or 3 years ago, though it was Ron's I believe!
Originally a Techno, it came from Steve resplendant with orange and black stripes on the hull, orange stripes on white sail and 2 outstanding orange rudders.
Now named Double Trouble and sails at the Isle of Sheppey Sailing Club

I bought 1784 after selling 1664 in 2007 in Spain.
I took 1784 to the Nationals in 2009 and didn't do so well.
I then took her to Croatia (see articles in Sprintnews) in 2009, 2010 and 2011. I didn't go in 2012 due to having cancer and an op.
Going to Croatia in Aug 2013, so will miss the Nationals, and miss a few boats too.
She is still called Double Trouble, and lives up to her name.
