Bernard sailing A35

Bernard Blavier contacted the AOA in October 2019 to enquire of her whereabouts. (Connecting with ex-owners is one of the pleasures of the website).

Bernard was the owner responsible for A35 being exhibited  in the Bordeaux Maritime Museum submarine pens in the 1990s. He has been unable to find out what happened when the museum shut and wondered if we knew. See this post in the Forum.

Bernard has provided these photos from his period of ownership.

    The boats were stored fully rigged in the rather dark concrete pens

    Keel down storage looks a little precarious
