Lots of New Boats!! 14 years 9 months ago #8524

Former Alb Topic Author Offline New Member Posts: 2 Thank you received: 0	How many Albs were built in 2010 and 2011? Seeing the sail numbers from the nationals, with 8155 etc it seems like lots of new boats are being built in UK and Canada. The good old Alb may be one of the healthiest classes around!! Worthy of some promotion I think Steve (ex Covenham SC)

Chris Turner Offline New Member Posts: 12 Thank you received: 0	Hi All, We are soon to start another batch run of Albacore's. Currently there are six boats on order and we have scope to extend this run. This will likely be the only production run in 2012 due to other event comitments. Don't be disapointed and get your order in NOW! Cheers, Chris.

jeremy Offline Elite Member Posts: 296 Thank you received: 8	It will be interesting to hear what the final numbers ordered from Chris Turner at Ovington for this Spring will be. Lots of numbers were being bandied around at the Dinghy Show - there may have been some double counting, but our number built may well put some of the "trendy" classes in the shade.

jeremy Offline Elite Member Posts: 296 Thank you received: 8	I think there are several more - talking to Chris on Sunday night but it depends how many come up with the deposit! There are rumours that one firm in the sailing industry is buying one as a works boat & 2 chaps who came on the stand at the show were thinking of placing an order we shall see when the dust settles
