Regulo Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Sorry to hear you're having to sell, Mike and Pat. Not an easy decision to take. Chameleon is a credit to you both for the work and attention you've given. A bargain for someone, for sure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JennyMorgan Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Having seen Chameleon moored nearby I can only say 'what a lovely boat'! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MauriceMynah Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Yes, a gorgeous craft, and one I'd be interested in but I think it unfair to subject it to the "Maurice Mynah neglect treatment" for which I'm rightly famed. I do wonder though, what does it need to get under potter air draft wise? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
