BooTwo is a 1983 Mk3 Sadler 25 Bilge Keel, which I converted to Split Junk Rig in 2020.
I have been absolutely delighted with the performance of her 30.4 m2 sail,
which I consider superior to the original Bermudan Rig on all points of sail.
You can see her sailing in these Videos
You can also see photos of her by following the links in my members profile
to members Albums (sorry I’m not tech savvy enough to post a link).
In 2017 she underwent a full osmosis treatment of gelcoat peel followed by
steaming and drying before re coating with Reactive Resins Anti Osmosis
products, followed by copper/epoxy antifouling. 10 coats in all.
She has her original Bukh DV8 diesel engine.
I installed new -
Plastimo 100L flexible water tank
Jabsco Heads.
Replacement berth cushions using Dunlopillow foam and memory foam.
Rocna 10kg Anchor with 25m of 8mm chain, 50m of 14mm Waveline 8 plait
Warp.
Origo 3000 alcohol stove.
Icom M506 Euro VHF transceiver/AIS receiver.
She has a Raymerine Tiller Pilot.
I also has a Hebridean Windvane for self steering which you can also see
in the videos, and a Yuloh sculling oar - made out of curiosity but which I’ve
kept on the boat as it works!
She is at Marconi Sailing Club near Maldon, Essex.
