History
The early history of this craft, now renamed LUTINE, is being researched by the NSBR. GH Dec 2012
Her present owners comments are listed by date
19?? - Transferred to a bermudan rig with a 16m mast. Reported to sail terribly. Engine was replaced by a BMC 2.2 litre Diesel, which is basically a marinised Mitsubishi K3B. Notable is that the prop is placed at port side, from which I suspect there used to be an older engine in.
Owners before 1976 have not yet been traced.
