Built by Adur Boatyard at Shoreham probably in late 1958 or early 1959 to the Adur 3 design by Deadman and Brookes. In the 1962 YB she was owned by A.D. Thompson of Christchurch SC but I cannot confirm whether he/she was the first owner. In 1963 the owner is shown as S H Porter of Walton on Thames SC. All the YBs from 1967 to 1973 show the owner as R A Young of 22 Julien Rd, Northfields W5 and the Stock Exchange (Thorpe) SC. In the 1974 book the owner changed to R Morris, 13 Sunray Ave, Tolworth, Surrey and Minima YC. He is shown as the owner until 1984 when the YB shows no owner. It seems for at least the last 21 years she has been lost from the MROA records. Perhaps one of the Minima or Tamesis MR owners might be able to help you with more info.
