It's a mark 12 so probably make a decent river boat.......

The boat in the origional post is 3090 Summer Wine.

Such a shame to see it like this, maybe someone will take it on but it does look very far gone to me.

now on the secondhand list under the correct number.

Summer Wine was my first ever Merlin. Dad crewed for me when I was 15 years old - we kept her in Salcombe. It absolutely breaks my heart to see her in that state, especially when I think back to the winters I spent stripping and varnishing her with Dad. 

I would take her back in a heart beat but I have nowhere to put her as we're moving house at the end of May. I also have no idea how I'd go about sorting her out.

She's a Champs winning boat! Please, please let her go to a good home. Or if there is anyone willing to store her in their garden for a while, I'll take her of your hands when I'm able to!
