The National Redwing

When the Looe Sailing Club commissioned Uffa Fox to design the Redwing it was stipulated that she must be

a sturdy, able seaboat first and foremost and at the same time fast and fun to sail. At first the boat remained an

exclusively West Country class where her qualities in the steep open seas around these coasts were

immediately appreciated, but soon her popularity spread to other parts of the coast where similar conditions

prevail, until now the latest sail number is 251.

The Redwing is not a “do-it-yourself” type of boat, but one that needs skilful craftsmanship in her

construction. She is built to stand up to any amount of rough treatment, and to last for many years. Boats that

are now over 60 years old still race regularly at the annual championships and perform admirably. As a

consequence, when boats do change hands, which is not often, the second-hand price remains remarkably

steady.

However, thanks to the efforts of our boat builders and restorers, over the last couple of decades there are now

plenty newer and refurbished boats joining the fleet to complement the older hulls weathered from more half a

century of hard racing. The first boats are now more than sixty years old but with a little bit of TLC even a

tired or neglected boat can be given a new lease of life. For example, R19 ‘Gleam’, built in 1947, was found

worn-out and abandoned in 1978 and put back in commission for five pounds. Years later and after many

changes of ownership she was restored again and is now in regular use in the IOS fleet. Also R30 ‘Talofa’,

built in the same year is currently being restored and should be under sail again in the 2014 season. As far as

we know the only pre-war survivor in seaworthy condition is number 2 ‘Kittiwake’, recently given a thorough

restoration to beautiful condition by Richard Spiller. Number 1, ‘Jackdaw’ is believed to still be at Polruan but

probably not in commission.

Finally, to quote Uffa Fox: “Those who know and understand Redwings are inspired by their seaworthiness.

They are outstandingly brave little boats, from which we can learn that the sea is to sail upon... in a boat in

which we can enjoy the sea in all its moods and not fear it.. even in a hat-ful of wind.”

NOTES

The National Redwing Class is affiliated to the Royal Yachting Association and hence all Class Rules and

measurement details are administered by their Technical Unit. All Redwings engaging in Class or Handicap

racing must be registered with the RYA and hold a valid Certificate of Measurement. Since most Redwings

qualify for a certificate it is simply a matter of writing to the RYA Technical Unit, RYA House, Ensign Way,

Hamble, Southampton, SO31 4YA, quoting your sail number and boat name. Or go to www.rya.org.uk and follow

links to Racing, Classes, Measurement etc.

The registration fees are £15.32 for RYA members and £25.53 for non-members.

REDWING BUILDERS

There is no restriction upon the builders of the Redwing Dinghy. Anyone wishing to do so may contact the RYA for

approval and issue of a sail number and copies of Class Rules. However, construction plans are no longer available

from the RYA, the originals having been lost or destroyed by them. Please contact the Hon. Secretary for details of

obtaining plan copies and other details.

“Those who know and understand

Redwings are inspired by their

seaworthiness. They are

outstandingly brave little boats from

which we can learn that the sea is to

sail upon in a boat in which we can

enjoy the sea in all its moods”.
