Quick Hello

[Richard M]

Hi Folks,
Just a quick intro from sunny Scotland.
I've just bought my first cruising yacht this summer, a Thames Marine, Mirage 30 and I sail out of Inverness.
I have not found anyone else out there with this type of yacht as I understand the moulds were destroyed back in the 80's and only a very few were built. She is an aft cabin wheel steer 9.1m, bilge keel yacht which is surprisingly roomy below decks. She handles well and I brought her from the West coast of Scotland to the East coast at the end of this season.
As I'm pretty new to transportation using wind power I'm more than happy to hear from anyone with a) the same boat (to share info etc.) and b) anyone in my area whose experience and skills they are willing to share.
Thanks and Bye.
