    I had always wanted a Landy. A chum in the motortrade offered me a "R" reg 110 CSW for just shy of £8.5k(mates price) - bit his arm off and used and loved for 2 years. A redundancy meant it was mortgage or Landy - tough choice! I could conceivably lived in the 110, but the wife and cats would...

    Capstan Winches

    inherited one with the SIII I have saved - having sailed for years a capstan winch is second nature and easy to master.
