Sailing on the Clyde yesterday I met another herad 23. Cailleach Dhugh (black lady or nun). I suspect that the name has been changed. Anyway it was a very nice boat loads of bits added and I hope to meet up with him again and get more photos.

If you want I could pass on your phone number to Den and he may then phone you with all the details. A bit more footage of his boat is on the start of the video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F7pQx1L3Rsc

Graham, thanks for info. I do not have a Heard 23 of that name in the Boat Register. When you see the owner again I would appreciate it if you could find out the year she was built, build number, previous names, etc. The owner's name and e-mail address would be good too.

Colin
