Hello again Kev,

Though WB#107 is not for sale, you are welcome to come and look over the boat and discuss its attributes as a prelude to viewing a 'for sale' craft.

I am having to sell my Winkle Brig ("Brigand" ex "Winkle" as owned by Martin Cartwight of WB fame).  I can email information if you are interested.  She is in "Ready-to-Sail" order and on a mooring at Wells-next-the-Sea in Norfolk.

Hello Kev,
In case you did not buy David Bone's No.107 and are still looking for a Winkle Brig, I am about to put No.62 "Brigand" (ex"Winkle") on the market.  I can email details.

Hello Kevin,
You may well have got yourself a boat by now but, if not, I am about to put my Winkle Brig (No.62 "Brigand", ex"Winkle") on the market.  I can email details but FYI I am in Norfolk (so quite a way from Cornwall).

Hello John,

Thank you for sharing with us all the sad news of the loss of your Dad.

I only met Eric once, but I can still recall his enthusiasm & keen sense of humour. I can only echo Barend's comments by saying that we will all think of him whilst sailing & working on our WB's. He designed and built a boat which always seems to make people smile.

Thank you,also, for providing your own Winkle Brig website, which I have really enjoyed - and further enhancing your Dad's memory.

All the best


Dom

Well that was great, wasted a whole afternoon looking at WB videos on YouTube. Gerard the "Sea Jade" videos are inspiring and enjoyable, think I have watched them all now. Can't wait to see one in the flesh, hopefully next week 🙂

We love ours. Sea Jade no.18
As above, loads of space and really easy to handle. Take a look at the video section of the WB website, there is some enlightening material there.

Thanks John,

I really think that a WB is destined to be my next boat and I can't wait to see David's boat in the flesh and confirm what my heart is already saying. Appreciate the help and advice.
