Christchurch |
A family member built
the Embassy in the 70's, and she has been in the family since having given
much pleasure to children, and adult, sailors . She was converted to Bermuda
rig which made her easier to sail. Sadly due to bereavement she is about to
go to a new home in Christchurch area (March 2010) where hopefully she will
continue to provide pleasure and enjoyment for those who sail her. She was
last out on the water during 2009, in Christchurch Harbour, being rowed,
sailed and motored with a Yamaha motor. Notice in later years, the family
went for comfort rather than speed with the addition of seat cushions. see
photo below. |

Cornwall |
2009. I restored the one that
I had and sold it on. The chap who bought it from me
sailed it just the once as far as I know, but had a bad experience - capsize
etc which put him off sailing somewhat. It still sits in his garage in
Cornwall gathering dust. |

602 |
Cambridgeshire |
2011. Bought 5 years ago, she
is alive and well in Cambridgeshire. Almost complete setup, though
the only time seen it set up fully is when she was bought. We have only used
it as a rowing boat. She was restored it 3 years ago, and it looks good
internally, but needs a bit of attention on the hull, as it has lain exposed
for the past 2 years |
