Moonduster

neris

There was an article on Afloat last saturday about what was probably one of the nicest Irish boats ever, Moonduster and how shes been neglected in Norway. She was a Frers design in cold molded mahogony and always looked immaculate the few times I saw her. The facebook pictures are a sad sight

I read that. Really sad. Remember her well from Crosshaven years ago.

First time I went sailing we meet the crew delivering her to Norway, they were a mad bunch, we had a stag party for one of them in the pub he was getting married for the third of 4th time in 11 days, it was going to take 10 days to sail the boar back or so they said. He had an equation for his wives, they had to be half his age + 5 years but as he was now over 40 they had to be half his age plus up to 7 years, it was working out for him so far?

Very sad about MD now if I win the lotto she'd be on the list. Anybody want to from the boards.ie sailing lotto syndicate

It would not take to much effort to get her back to prime condition
Most of the wear and tear looks cosmetic the damage to the hull can be scarffed
