Hi

I was recently given an old beat up sailing tender which has re-
awoken my interest in sailing. Looking around at current active
classes, it seems the corsair is probably the most appropriate for a
family boat though I don't know how I might be able to afford even a
2nd hand one. That aside, I am interested to find out if there are
any old aquaintances out there.

I used to sail at Oak Flats Club in Lake Illawarra from around 1969
to 1976. First in manly juniours (Tangara 1381) and later with my
father or brother in a Vagabond (pisces 220) which had a distinctive
purple spinaker.

Together we sailed many regattas, CHS titles and NSW state titles,
usually comming in 2nd overall in the state. In those days the Vags
and Corsairs had a close association. Looking at a recent Nationals
writeup, that may still be the case. So maybe there are some old
friends here?

Also I am interested in any news of our old boat number 220.


Regards,
Ken Webster
