True Venturer

On one of my intermittent trawls of the internet for references to our sort of UFO I found True Venturer. She's for sale and located at Kip Marina on the Clyde. (That's Scotland, for the UFO diaspora.) I have added her to the UFO 34 List. If you have any more information please attach a comment to this post.

You can find an unreliable list of UFO 34s at the renegade site.

Charlie seeks Hydrovane

Hi, just found this site. I see there is mention of Hydrovane being for sale. I've emailed the owner re its whereabouts as I'm interested in a UFO 34 and live in Glasgow. He hasn't replied yet. Anybody know this boat or where it is lying?charlie

Kerry Maid enlists

Phil Hamerton and Alison Rennie's Kerry Maid is currently at Troon on The Firth of Clyde and shortly to return to Oban. Phil reports that their regular cruising ground is the West Coast of Scotland; where better?
The Renegaders have an enduring love for the west coast and every year when we discuss our cruising plans, there are votes in favour of a return to Scotland. Renegade was last there in 1999 and is booked to return in 2008, but it can be a long slog up the east coast from our home port of Ipswich. What about a 2008 UFO 34 rally in Oban, Tobermory or somewhere else on the west coast, Phil?

EUPHO's new owner wants to trace a leak

Hi there my name is Roy Sampson. I have just bought Eupho from Greg Richards. Perhaps you could register me. I'm moving her to the Solent.
Have you any experience of the sea cocks leaking or the stern gland. I'm trying to trace a small leak into the bilges.
Regards,
Roy

News from Not Negotiable

Hi Adrian

Hope you and UFO and going well and plenty of time to sail. Have just bought a new set of sails for Not Negotiable and starting to do a bit more racing with the hope of some more off shore races toward the end of the year in keeping with her past.

Feel free to add my email address to the contacts list site if anybody is passing through the area.

Regards

John

The boat is still on land at Port St Louis du Rhone, and at the moment I am working hard to get her in an as good as possible condition again in order to sell her = ready to sail =.
