John Long of Seasalter Sailing Club (previously of Grafham) tells me has had his boat Spark 1133 from new since May 1987.
So can anyone beat that? 29.5 years. I doubt it, but maybe..............

I have just bought this spark 1133, awaiting a tow bar to bring it home to Grafham

Rhys, Well Done & Welcome to the Fleet.
Home is about right for 1133 as it spent much of it's life at Grafham. Although I think it spent some of it's earlier years in the Arab states when John was working abroad.
