'Mobri II'
At first
glance you would say 'what is an Eventide doing on the friends page'.
But if you look real close you will see it is in fact a Catalac 9metre!
She has the same break in the sheer and from a distance could be
mistaken.... This is Brian and Mo West's boat. For years they sailed 'Mobri' an Eventide 24 that appears on these pages as 'Kazoo' now. Brian was Treasurer for many years for the eoa, and latterly auditor. Having left the eoa, Brian has now agreed to be our 'Fund Manager'. thank you Brian. Brian is also a Justice of the Peace. Brian sails the River Blackwater, when he finds time!
At the 2003 agm he was staunch supporter of the proposition from the owners, to have associate membership for non owners. It was as a result of the way this was defeated, that we formed. The rest is history of course. |

This is 'Friend' Duncan Mcgregor's new boat. Here she is being hauled out of a barn in Northumberland where she has been in store for decades. He has joined us, even though it is an American design, as he likes the site and what we stand for. Maybe we might get an update on his progress with a hint or tip that might help other self builders? | |||
