Have you sailed a Classic Dragon? 18 Feb 2009

I was delighted and honoured to be asked to become the BDA Secretary at the recent AGM. One of the tasks the committee has set itself is to build up the BDA archives as we are fearful much interesting and important historical information about Dragons and the class may become forgotten.

The Chairman Owen Pay will be circulating something shortly to members, but I thought I might steal a march on one area with Burnham Dragon sailors. We are putting together as much information as we can about all classic Dragons, that is all those wooden boats built before the advent of plastic in 1973.

Therefore I would welcome hearing from all and any of you who have owned or sailed in classics, particularly the name, build year, builder, significant race results, any other owners known and building materials. Photos would also be appreciated and any spare copies of BDA magazines or White Books from before 2000 too.
