The Year Book confirms she's a Smoker's Satisfaction built in 1977.

Are you going to park it alongside your other unsailed Merlin ?

Memory tells me it originally belonged to Nick Aubrey- at one stage it was at Draycote owned by Roger Neale - late 70's. SHe was painted british racing green then and was a tidy looking boat - as one would expect from the Camperdown craftsmen
