Concerto is a Hoare (I think?) Smoker's Satisfaction which spent quite a long time at Hampton under the ownership of Rob Heath and one of the Bowen Perkins, though I can't remember which. The black paint job is new! Rob recognises the hoop but not a lot else from his ownership. You always wonder what may lurk under the paint in a boat this old, but if there isn't any rot and the joints are all holding together should still be a good inland boat.

My earlier post seems to have been deleted . The year book shows 3047 as a Rowsell Smokers

She was a Smokers, blue when I had her then in a fit of madness for a Salcombe week in the mid 90's I painted her yellow and purple. I think only three planks sprung that week. By the end of the week I think a whole roll of duct tape was holding her together. She definitely looks better now 😂
