HYDRA - MR2209 - a Hotspur design
built in 1969

I built Hydra in the garage of my house at Woodham Ferrers in early 1969. The boat was owned by clubmate Tony Ceretti.

We sailed the boat together at the National Championships at Whitstable that year.

And here she is in 2005 - 36 years later, having been carefully restored by her late owner, Alan Dovey.
