Very sad to say goodbye to Sea Pig but my wife and I have now bought a Starlight 39 with the intention of spending the next few years getting familiar with a bigger boat before going further afield when time allows.

Deck and hull bottom: Cream
CLH braked trailer with swinging cradle and spare wheel

Thank you Matthew

Very sorry to say goodbye to Sea Pig, the 5 years we had her have been a great introduction to sailing for the whole family. Our little adventures and more ambitious summer holidays have convinced Ann and I that we will want to spend more time afloat as time goes on, so a bigger boat seems a logical move.

Look out for a Starlight 39 called Rhumb.

It's got two loos, which I have to remember to refer to as heads, but we're keeping the trusty orange bucket for old times sake. You can take the girl out of the BayRaider but you can't take the BayRaider out of the girl.

All the best.

Charlie, Ann, Rob and Eric

Good luck on your new adventures Charlea.
Thanks for your input, and help (sheaves!) Here.

I hear those Starlights sail well?

There seems to be a large turn over of boats (caravans and camper vans too I'm told) in general, at the moment. I guess people are "re-grouping" in these new Covid times?

Looks like 2021 will be the second year we will be unable to get to, and enjoy "normally", (otherwise a long way to travel, and a lot of risk just to sit in the sun at the villa) our regular haunts in Greece. Meanwhile, I've not managed to either convince my wife that some of my pension lump sum would be better "invested" in a BC 23 (as several friends/family have "invested" in classic cars. My brothers 1986 911 is currently in MY garage; nearest I'll get to having one!), or obtain that elusive "affordable" deep water mooring for a boat like your Starlight!
BRe # 52 - "Two Sisters"  2016. Plank sprit, conventional jib. Asym spinn. Coppercoat. Honda 5. SOLD Nov 2022....

Hi Charlie and family

I though I'd pop a note on here to say we're the new smitten owners of Sea Pig and that she's arrived safely in her new home on the shores of Windermere.


She'll be doing double service as our coastal adventure boat and our teaching boat for our inclusive adventure company for people with disabilities. 

Her inaugural voyage will be tomorrow - spent today rigging her.

Cant wait

Chris, Leo and Vicky

Hurrah - I'm sure she'll continue to do sterling service producing happy days and memorable moments  :)

Good luck tomorrow, I'll PM you my number in case you have any questions.
