Re: [bolger] Re: Was "Solution 48" ever actually built?
I have a vague recollection of reading about a Solution 48 having been built (or maybe sailed) in Whangarei, New Zealand. This was probably 15-20 years ago and might have been an article in Cruising World magazine.

success of the Solution 48/Dawn Treader from Phil and Susanne via
another Bolger group member. Hopefully I'll have something to relay
soon. Meanwhile I'm still working on an RC model of one.
