Two very smart, well built boats and a pleasure to see current boat club activities after all this time, Oh that the same applied in Wales.

Century Yacht - another oldie !

This Century Yacht belongs to BMBC Dave and was revived after many years in the loft ! - Seen here on her more recent inaugural sailing - certainly sails better here than up there !. ⛵

Or as we taught some of the Moroccan sellers of re-coloured crystals to say when hawking their wares as gem crystals, e.g. amethyst -
"It's a genuine original forgery Sir" 😁😂

Beautiful yacht and well done. Too much goes into a skip, this proves a point.

I think i have seen Juno before but i an not sure where.
I really support the idea of using stuff that would normal be thrown away.
Again please pass on a well done for his great build.
