Re: Reminising

Hello Ken,
There is a Vagabond called Pisces at Budgewoi Sailing Club on the
Central Coast. (See Yahoo group
http://au.groups.yahoo.com/group/budgewoisailing/ ). I don't
remember the sail number or spinnaker colour of that partcular boat,
but you can contact the club president at the email address listed
on the group.
Regards
Tim
