3 Tonner.


John Stevens the Database Manager is the owner of 'Seawitch' now.  He took her on in the summer of 2007.  She had been for years in Rye in Sussex but was shifted to Dartmouth, where she was traded for another boat.  John saved her from being destroyed by the yard in Devon and towed her, with the help of Mike Hoban, another member and owner of 'Cirra', and they used  the trailer from 'Fiddler's Green'.
   

Here she is having safely arrived at Tollesbury.  The journey was not without trauma.  The Land Rover they  hired broke down twice, the last time terminally and they all had to be recovered to the South Mimms services, where they had to wait a week till vehicles and manpower were once more available.  Fiddler's Green's trailer was removed later and returned to John Williams!  'Seawitch' is now on chocks.
   

John has purchased a neat 10 hp Yanmar inboard, which will be installed next year he hopes.  In the meantime it is the tiresome task of the removal of all the bad timber on deck and the cabin top, sides, and round the topsides.  That will keep john busy for the summer of 2008!
