David Henshall, a regular poster to the Classic and Vintage Racing Dinghy Association forum has unearthed some great footage of a Yachting World Scow from the early 1960s. Excellent footage of a great boat.

I was sailing a fleetwind at the tudor sailing club in langstone harbour when the yachting world scow appeared. I was so mesmerised by the boat that I built an 18 foot version that was hopelessly overweight. Mike Tremlett himself offered advice on building the full size version, and even prepared the centreboards for me. The project never progressed and my original drawings were lent to a member of stokes bay sailing club, never to be seen again. Now at the age of 67, I sail a vintage fireball, with my wife, at Thornbury sailing club on the river severn.
