I believe it refers to “Dear John…” type letter, that your wife/girlfriend writes you when they leave… This was what explained to me by my friend who owned it 1989/90 (French)

Photos from around 1989 ish

I too looked at Truekit ( made in China), but ended up with a Wild Cat inflatable, almost same as Truekit, but much better price and quick / easy delivery

Sam Holmes Sailing channel The Sailing Brothers channel Both actually feature a lot of sailing without the T and A of other channels

I sold one for $1100 , matching your description, about 6 months ago . Now resides at Parua Bay in Whangarei, may be an idea to contact sailing club up there and see if it’s avail for purchase

Wild Cat also sell these same fridge/freezers (Brass Monkey ) , I have two ( one for camping , one for GBE), very happy with them I know they were selling at Boat Shiw last weekend, but I got mine online

Purchased a yacht 6 summers ago, with an Excel. They are amazing , I’ve never had a moment of worry about it setting and holding tight I’ve been converted to Excel , in fact when we changed yachts recently, it was one of the first things we bought, yes from CRA. great service and products.

He was a nice guy young James we rallied cars at same time as his family, very sad loss in the Motorsport community

Murray I had 276, at GBC . My recall says 289 was from Howick, Taylor’ family ?

Thirteen years ago I bought a D28, with friends as partners, it was $32k from memory, Yanmar , full GRP, great boat, three trips to Bay of Islands, very safe, capable family boat , with very young kids on board We sold after 5 years use, got $25k I think. Replaced with 1020, which went from $70k to $52k after 5 years similar sailing use . So D28 dropped $7k over that time , 1020 dropped $18k same number of years . My advise, offer $17-19k, remember it’s easy to go “up” , but can’t go down so simply, Money talks, Cash SHOUTS ! As a former D28 owner, I really rate them as saf

You almost gave yourself a New Years bath , after a few (quite a few) wines ...hahaha
