Aallotar Classic Boat

In the May edition of Classic Boat there is a five page article on an Australian couple's voyage down the French canals on John Howell's old SCOD, Aallotar SC34. It is an informative piece with some nice pictures, including shots of an economic solution for dealing with an absent mast boot!
