Re-building the Dewdrop

This is the story of the "Dewdrop" (previously "Kathleen-Charlotte"). She's a Wooden Silhouette MK II, designed by Robert Tucker and built by Hurley Yachts of Plymouth in 1960. She was literally saved from the bonfire November 2006 and was given to me as a project.

Light at the end of the tunnel



This picture was taken at a Silhouette association rally on Rutland Water in June. Dave (wearing the hat) was kind enough to allow me to sail on his beloved "Polly" for the weekend. She's been restored to an exceptionally high standard. This was sent to me to remind me what I should be striving for and it's certainly renewed my vigour! Many thanks to Elizabeth for being kind enough to send it!
