Tomahawk
      #246454 - 31/08/2002 19:42

Does anyone know where a 12 metre called Tomahawk is now. She belonged to my step grandfather Ralph Gore and he sold her in the early 50's. I heard two years ago that she now belonged to one of Italy's publishers who also owned the 12 metre yachts 'Cintra' and also 'Vim'. I was told that the owner's naval archetects were Georgetti & Magrini near Milan. I have telephoned and got unobtainable and have written to them and recieved no reply.
If anyone knows where Tomahawk is, or the name and address of her owner, I would be very grateful for this information. I have a photograph of me behind her wheel at the age of 5, now 53 years later I would love to see her again and possibly have another photograph taken of me behind her wheel.

Hi Gerry, thanks for your good wishes. No interest at all yet. I have had two excellent days teaching topless blonde to drive Sunseeker Carmargue. I hope heaven is like this, I shall be really cheesed off if it is and I don't qualify to go there and have to go to the other place!
Lots of love, Martin.
