Known Owners
Identity of this Firefly none too certain, being based on the number on the sails when acquired (inherited perhaps) by last known owner. If the sail number is correct at F2666, the Hull Number is probably 2860.
Transom replaced at some stage, builder’s brass plate missing; no readable numbers carved in hog.
Last known owner: Mark Irving, Edenbridge, Kent c2003, member of Chipstead SC; seemingly abandoned in club dinghy park c 2006.
In very poor condition, mast and sails missing, broken up January 2015
Seemingly early racing life based at South Staffs SC.
c 1975 – Alan Pimlott, Budworth SC, see F855
Later – Loughborough University
c2003 – Mark Irving, Chipstead SC
