Junk in Weymouth
« on: August 08, 2010, 09:57:17 pm »

This was in Thursdays local newspaper. A chap from Sherborne in Dorset has a Chinese Junk that he keeps down at Weymouth. He is looking for 3-4 people to crew for him. When I get the chance I will try and get some photos of it. :-) :-)....Smudge

Blondie Haslar (try  on Google)
Had  a Junk Rigged Folkboat (I think it was a Folkboat)
He used it in the transatlantic races in the early days
Simples!  About two control lines int the cockpit
or inside easy!
