    She looks like she has a lot of potential, just the challenge of getting her back to my mooring in Chichester harbour sans engine. Also she appears to have a forestay?

    A great deal of potential.
    That is an extra halyard from which you could fly a ghoster or dangle a radar reflector or the Mrs' bloomers and not a forestay.
    Wing it without an engine or drop one in. Easy peazy.

    I thought that I had seen that boat before and I was right! I was interested except for the headlining, I have just finished re-doing my current boat and it is not a job that I want to do again!
