Sail_No	Year	BoatName	Owner	HomePort	Condition	Rig	Engine	Notable EVENT	Comments
A104	2024		Baker, Ted					Boat moved undercover with A148 Johara.
A104	2022				Storing			Owner keen to find new carer for Arosa.	Yanmar diesel was u/s - cylinder head may have gone (got an engine oil light warning and then it stopped!) Sails and rigging all good. Some spongy areas in deck that are probably worse now. Andrew’s brother and father in law have checked it occasionally and replaced the cover, but he suspects that moisture will have made its way in. He would be happy to donate her to anyone who can take care of her. – Greg Chris Henderson from Sunderland showed some interest in A104 in December 2022. - Richard
