Just the Notes and Links fields are updateable on-line. We will transfer your information from there to the proper database fields. This feature has been abused and will be removed - a revised update mechanism will be be created soon.
This page will be developed to include a full ownership history, racing history and photo gallery for each boat. This will be kept up to date as news arrives. For now we are catching up on any current information. If you know where this boat is, her condition, owner, current activity etc please add to the Notes section above (with your screen name), we'll update the database. The data that is on this page is a mixture of information form other websites (thanks Bill Hughen & Erwan Le Ravallec), recent news, personal knowledge and guesswork. Any help would be much appreciated.
