Shiny is for sale.
We have taken to from sale because it seems not being on the 4 sale list is the most effective way of selling a boat.
If you are interested price will be negotiable.

Ah, Dave, thought you'd changed your mind about selling. Haven't put her on the for sale list for the show. Damn. Will just have to tell everyone in person. If you drop me a pm or email with price indication, i'll put my sales hat on ;D

Hi guys, sorry I've been rather busy 'Not Sailing' recently and have only just picked up on the thread. Arguement's Helm went to Loughborough Uni so I've been thrunging her around on the lake on my tod. Sounds like two students could really give her the attention she deserves. PM me for more details if your interested.

Selling suggests talking about the boat to prospective buyers.
none of that.
As far as I have seen in the last few years most boats sold are not on the list and are owned by people no longer doing open meetings.
We thought this year we would try the disappearing act ourselves.
So far it has worked as this is the first time Shiny has been mentioned in any thred regards selling.
This is just some dark humour and not a reflection on the class but in every good joke there needs to be a grain of truth.
So yes any help selling Shiny would be appreciated.
After all as said before she is a teenager now and not able to keep up with the ghosts and food additives of the younger generation but I would still argue she is the most fun boat out there.
Her pace would suggest being able to keep the e's etc honest.

Hi Lucian & Tom

I missed you at the Dinghy Show, I hope you saw the stand and got what you needed - please get in touch and we'll help you find the right boat (note the offer from Dave Fudge in this thread, he's the owner of the boat you saw at Burghfield)
