The existing owner possibly doesn't know too much about this boat if they believe it was built in the 1920s, and is no more than 6' 10" wide!

Probably not. Although having said that Linnet's only 6'10". Webster did a MAGIC job on her!

We could buy her, tow her around the BCN challenge for the extra points, then sell her

You could...but I don't think they're ready to accept its true value, just yet.

Oh she'd have an immediate value. Lots of points for a full-length butty in the BCN challenge

PS I vote for keeping Tawny Owl, I'm not sure the crew you have lined up for the BCN are prepared to bow haul ALL the way round

You should have gone direct to Tuckey.

 

I was given to believe that, once Usk arrived in his yard, Usk was no longer BW's concern (especially if they were no longer paying for storage).
