Right, putting the other head on. A set are lying in a field in france, I believe, these belong to Colin. Good hull mould but a very poor deck mould. Mader have two, theirs and again I believe it to be the Tylers ? Missing in Action are ODAY's and Plastrend both in USA ? more than likly added to global warming already Richardsons ( rumour has it they where on a roof of a car garage, some where near to Darlington......... Bianchi & chchi Italy we think are in Poland with the french builder, mind you with the poles here they could be in Spalding Information from 67 show's there where, 13 builder around the world, shame realy they could be a good boat if there where any around. Do you have any news of them?

I'll speak to Colin in Germany, and the Germans maybe we could get a set back to the UK.

Although I cannot verify that the moulds in the US are definately gone, moulds that are that old are prolly useless. Talk to Mader, please we need another builder - no matter where.

The problem with building the boat is the initial investmant and risk, no garuntees the first one out of the mould will be any good, I'm possibly willing to take that risk. I will talk with Dingwall see what his thoughts are he's a good builder with relativley low volume at the moment, but a good flying fifteen builder. Another builder could be Ovingtons but due the Dave Ovington sadly been no longer with us I'm not sure how they are placed.

I didnt know that, best tread carefully, I can speak to Ovingtons but I guess there cost's would be quiet high. There is another avenue a guy called Jimmy Embelton he has a succesfull company making composite boxes for industry in Hartlepool Jimmy's a sailor and has dabled with boat building.

Ovington's is doing a LOT of work for Rondar right now. They may NOT have availability.
I'd like to get one of the boats if you guys can find a proper mould.
There are none in the US I'm afraid.
