Mike,
looks like my boat AUS8036 is available for charter as I will be teaming up with Ian Scholes and we will be using Alvin.
Paul Ridgway and I used my boat for training prior to going to Sicily and we were on the water most weekends over winter so it is pretty good sailing condition. It underwent a total refurbishment last Autumn. It has 2 new sets of sails, including a new Ullman main, jib and kite which were only used in Sicily. Would probably prefer the charterer to use the "second" set of new sails but it all depends on the charter fee negotiated. Boat is on a stainless steel beach trolley.
Only downside is having to get the boat from Melbourne to Manly and back but were there is a will there is a way.
