Quote from Paul Smith :-

"My father (Peter Smith) has owned a Scaith named Swaabie, (Sail No 7) for the last 22 years. We are the second owners of the boat, I think it was built circa 1978/9 originally. The boat has been kept in original condition, varnished externally with a cream interior. We have towed her to sail off the coasts of France and Spain and on Lake Garda in Italy, but most frequently in Salcombe South Devon and the Norfolk Broads. A much loved boat by us, and the subject of admiration wherever she sails."
