Rowsell Omega NSM 1 with the rear tank. This boat was sailed for many years by David Sewell at Maldon. I last saw it when it was laid up in chicken shed about 6/7 years ago when the varnish was beginning to detoriorate. Good to know it will be sailed
David also owned a Disguys- Deadline Midnight- not sure what happened to that.

Thankyou very much for tthat info.yes the varnish isnt the best now , serviceable .Will look for someone to sort it this winter I think.Im told this design is a good fast design for club racing?

An NSM won't compete with modern boats in planing conditions, but as a club handicap racer is a very cappable design, especially if you can persuade the club to give it a 10 or 20 point PY bonus to take into account it's advancing years!
