I have looked in your for sale section, I have tried to e-mail hull builders, but no joy, I even looked on ebay, but the two boats mentioned in another thread, there owners will not export. Are EC12 boats available in the UK and if so where? Or would I be better off looking for another class of boat. I do not want to stir anything up, I have no way of racing an EC12, if I'm the only one in the UK with one, but the classic lines of these yachts, are something else and I would like to be part of it.

You're not alone in the UK Trigger - try contacing Woody Cook - look him up in members of this site under kermwood.

Trigger,

Woody Cook is the go to guy in the UK right now. If you can't find his email around the site, email me at floridaec12@comcast.net and I will forward you his email. I would give it to you here, but I don't have it handy right now.

There are guys who will help get a boat to you. I am sure it is just a matter of time before Rick West jumps in here to aid you. We would very much like to get the class moving in the UK. The EC-12 is a great boat and I think it only takes a handful of boats on a lake to kick start the growth there.

Cheers.

Hi Trigger or is it Trigger955i?
Where are you located? There have been reports that you are in Greece. Your IP is out of Amsterdam. I see two different emails on Hotmail. Just wondering because Kermwood is the contact in the UK for some time now. It appears you have email with him.

The email addresses listed on the Supplier's List is used daily here without problem. You are among several in the UK interested in the EC12 and some have boats.

The EC12 is exported to the UK, is not part of the national authority at this time and there are no reverences for the UK. What can you share with us?

Thanks for the replies. To answer Rick first, they're both me, I registered as Trigger and then when I went back on the site a couple of days later, it did not recognize me, thinking I had forgotten my password already I re-registered using another address. It was then that I read the note about not being instant membership, you can remove me as Trigger955i, that's my other hobby, and I have a Triumph Motorbike. Greece yes my fault, I had some problems with the map thing, it wouldn't stay put, I live in Lancashire, not a million miles from Woody, well not by American standards. Thanks for the Woody Cook connection, I notice his name when I was trying to place my marker on the map, I will give him a call. I would like to help fly the flag for the class in the UK.

Trigger,
Thank you for the update and clarification. What is going on in the UK is better learned from Kermwood. He is a member of the US authority, came to our Florida Nationals at Disney World last November and will attend the international gathering at Nelson in New Zealand this coming November. We look forward to hearing from you.
