One-off 35ft sloop designed by Jim Ditchfield from Southampton. Cold-moulded plywood hull over laminated mahogany frames. Home built between 1978 and 1985. Cruised around the West Country and North and South Brittany before we headed off to Spain this year.

Hi All...
I know I'm a litle late for the party but thought I'd throw a couple of pics of my boat.
This is Truant, my Etap 28.
I keep her in Gillingham Marins on the Medway and normally cruise the Medway, Thames Estuary and sometimes visit Burham-on-Crouch and Ramsgate.
I've ownerd her for just over 2 years.

Ours since Nov last year. No pictures sailing yet - we are hoping for someone to 'snap' us.
Name is original but unfotunately is what we don't have at the moment.

No one is late and everyone is welcome, no matter how big or small your boat

some pictures of my boat, Kajakas III, on a windy passage on the North Sea. She's a de Vries Lentsch designed yawl built in '67, but still going strong!

Reason: spelling
Someone requested that I repost the pic of Esper at night as it was a little small. Finally, I got round to digging it out so here it is again, the Imax version at 800px wide (96kb). It was taken three years ago when Liz and I visited Bozburun in Turkey for the first time. 30 sec exposure, F/5.6.
Here's Wild Otter, Vancouver 32, looked after by John & Chris for 14 years, and now passed on to us, and we love her:
Dawn, just departed Wells:
Thanks to Dick of El Nino for the piccies

Seen here in the Tobago Cays
Now in Annapolis, heading South cos its FREEZIN here!
Her sister 'Freya' is the only boat to have won the Sidney Hobart three times consecutively. Not sure she would manage it now though! You can see Freya moored just off the beach in Bequia.
Wish we could do without the 'scaffolding' on the back.... but needs must!
This is our new boat Flapjack, she is a Bruce Roberts Norwest 34, we only got her a month ago, no sailing pics yet so if anyone sees us in the Solent please feel free.
This is our old boat Katarina B, she is a 25’ Itchen Ferry, she was our first boat but is now up for sale as 2 boats into one bank balance don’t go :-)
At anchor in Mupe Bay
