Remarks:
The Waveney One Design (WOD) was designed in the early 1920s at the request of the Waveney Sailing Club, and the class are still actively sailed and raced at the Waveney & Oulton Broad Yacht Club (WOBYC). The first 26 WODs were constructed in wood by various builders over a number of years. In 1994 a mould was taken from a local boat builder’s WOD, Penny Royal, with this example, WOD 27, being the first hull built from that mould, and following which a further 7 GRP boats have since been built. She was purchased by the present owner in 2017 (and the previous owner since 1999), she is now sadly for sale due ill health. She has a good racing record in club sailing at WOBYC and regattas at Coldham Hall and Beccles, and has more latterly been lightly sailed on the northern Broads. Any test welcome.
