Here are two photos on our previous boats, 7591 and 7922. They are built by Parker with deck & c/b case top in wood. Others we have had include: 3657, 5031, 5796, 6434, 6841, 7033, 7296, 7591. The one we now have, 8232 (the 10th), was bought 1989 from Larry Tuttle at Waterat Sailing Equipment - and this one seems to last forever!

1986 Worlds in La Rochelle: We finished 8th, Krister was 2nd after Peter Colclogh/Harold Barnes, who won the title. Here is another photo from one of the windier races. The logotype is owned by Cargolux, who sponsored the travel & boat transportation for the two Swedish teams to the 1985 Worlds in Enoshima/Japan. 

We shipped the boats with one of their jumbojets from Luxembourg to Hongkong where they were unloaded & packed together with the HK fleet shipcontainer for the final destination to Enoshima. Some weeks later we went with a Cargolux jumbojet airfreighter to Taipei in Taiwan where we stayed 4 days before going to Tokyo. That was a memorable worlds trip for sure. Paul Elvstrom/Jacob Bojsen-Moller finished 12th, we were 13th. Nicke Philipson/ Lars Stugemo, the other swedish team, came in on 11th place. Enoshima Yacht Club, was also the organizer for the 1964 Olympic racing. Marcel Buffet, was there at that time sailing FD and also Paul, as sailing coach for the Danish team. 21 years later they were sailing at this place again!
