2006 4 October, from Sailing Anarchy Forum, Rich, " I BOUGHT THE OLD DAVIDSON 39 BUILT IN 1980 WHICH ORIGINALLY CALLED SZECHWAN. MANY YEARS AGO. IT WAS LYING IN PITWATER (SYDNEY). AFTER A YEAR OF A COMPLETE STRIPPING AND REBUILDING THE OLD GIRL AND BUYING NEW SAILS FROM QUANTUN, WE HAD HER ON THE WATER AND SHE WAS STILL QUICK, 24YEARS LATER. FANTASTIC LEARNING YACHT, FOR OFFSHORE AND AROND THE BOUYS. THE OLD GIRL STILL WON US LOTS OF RACES. RUDDER CUP MELB/LAUNCESON ETC. PIG OF A BOAT TO SAIL, BUT GREAT REWARDS IN LEARNING SKILLS, AFTER I PUT A HOLE IN IT I THINK IT WENT TO BRISBANE. STILL MISS THE OLD GIRL I THINK!!!!!!! No I Prefer the Mumm 30 what was I thinking...."
