Try Thomas at Fine Wooden Boats, Huntingdon on 07592 884003.

www.finewoodenboats.co.uk

Thomas is a friend of mine and deals in wooden classics. He is a remarkable young man who learned his trade with Riva in Italy.

Also there are obviously the Simmonds fans, who are friends of OSB

They are on www.simmonds-motorlaunches.co.uk

I've emailed you Terry. Happy to post details of Optimist on the Simmonds website, and hopefully find a new owner, or encourage you to tackle the restoration yourself!
