I will shortly be putting my Eclipse Mk1, bilge keel, on the market as I no longer have the stamina and health to do justice to it.
Its 1990 and based in Southampton. Based on survey from July 2021 the advertised price would be £51,000. For further details please contact me.

Hi Peter
Yes got your email on Tuesday and sent reply with several photos and survey. I wonder if it was too big for your mailbox. If not received please advise and I will resend in smaller sets.
I have your address as Pete.Fulham@outlook.com

Intrigued to know where your electrical switch panel has gone now that you have the radar/plotter in front of the wheel...? Thanks

Hi Steve.

I see your spec list a 'Additional Storm/Emergency fore stay with highfield tensioner'. It's something I've been considering for a while, so can you give a few more details please, such as where it is attached to the mast, where you stow the fore stay, how do you sheet it please. Also any sail size info and how it performs when you have used it.

Regards,
Paul.

Hi Alex
Done before my time so not sure how difficult it was to move, but its on the back of the console. Seems to me like a better use of space. Photo attached.

Hi Paul
Having never used it in anger there is not a lot I can say about how well it works. The mast attachment is about 1 metre below the forestay and the haliyard is internal to the mast. There is an eye plate on the foredeck about 1M aft of windlass that is reinforced by a stainless rod in the forecabin that takes the load to the chain locker bulkhead. There is a second set of fairleads on the genoa track. I normally keep the highfield unit down below and the stay lashed to a foreward lower shroud. I can't find any detail photos except fore deck and cabin.
