1078

Post by Robin Boardman »

Now owned by Robin Boardman and sailed at Glasson sailing Club (in Morecambe Bay). Past its racing best but still in good solid condition.

Previous owner was one Nigel Duckett around which there was a Beaver Sailing Club connection.

Great to see she is still going. 1078 was my first Dart, shared with Brian Whistler of TBYC and bought in 1989, I think, either from Seasalter or Herne Bay. Is she still called Wild Thyme?

We put a furling jib on her and sailed her for two seasons after which I bought a Sting 1235 and Brian returned to a Mirror and latterly Sandhoppers.

We sold her to the Laser Centre for £1850 in part exchange for the Sting in March 1991.
