OK..it simply cannot sit in the garden anymore so if any one would like 2739 then please come and take it off my hands. No strings attached, she does need some work but I really need the space!
There is also an alloy mast section with no rigging, a very old boom, some associated fittings, a rusty old trailer (which she is sat on) and some foils. We are in Hamble, near Southampton feel free to contact me.
Cheers, Hugh.

It is a September Girl built I believe by Rowsell in 1974 however, this is not certain.
The hull is completely bare so to go sailing it requires the attachment of all fittings and bits of string etc. It was bought last year for a project over the Winter (being the last merlin my Dad owned before he moved onto other classes). However, our other boat 3494 ended up taking priority.
Now I just need to move it as I am not going to beable to give it the time it requires. Make no mistake there is a bit of stuff to do to her but if someone wants a project then it is here for the taking.

according to the 1981 MR book it is a September Girl and was built by Jones and Cuisik
