IOR landfills?

Anyone got a good photo of the Sydney 2 tonner Shogun? The airbrush work on her was supposed to have cost $16K in 1979!

Was known as the "panel van" personally I liked it, but the only photo I have of her has the topsides in shade and doesn't show the paint job well enough to post, besides it is framed & on the wall.

She was a sister to Impetuous but was not finished in time for the Admirals Cup trials, great upwind in light air, but is the only boat i've been on to clean the windex 3 times in one downhill race!

Not a good photo but still shows a bit of the paint job. Remember it well from back in the day. Think it was down here in Tas for sale a while ago (different paint job though). Pic pinched from this website: https://www.histoiredeshalfs.com/One Tonner/00 TU Shogun.htm

Typical IOR - Spin Keel, Fade Rudder!!

That looks like a J/120 or similar to me

Definitely a J boat. As they are quite controllable, crew issues.

That's her.

There was even a full set of those kites with matching bloopers!

And that dark patch in the middle of the transom was an air brushed samurai.

Tried to find out what happened to her in that river creek in Brisbane, Australia (she was repainted yellow? at that time). Any idea?

Seeing as several other old IOR 1/4 tonners have been/are being re-habbed in San Diego this one sounds like a good candidate for someone
