The inimitable Mr Geoff Gritton requests the pleasure of your company to celebrate the unveiling of C56 Never Say Never – the very latest addition to the BOD family – at 11.00 on Easter Friday 25th March at Brightlingsea Boat Park and Ride.

Without doubt Never Say Never is truly innovative, incorporating a number of brand new concepts and also refining and improving on existing BOD thinking.  From her inset wooden transom, to her GNAV kicker, twin spinnaker poles and self bailer set up, to name but a few, none of us have ever seen anything like it before.  All credit to Geoff for taking such a blank sheet approach, and to Simon Hipkin, White Formula, John Saker and all the suppliers for helping to make Geoff’s ideas into reality – and of course to BOD Measurer David Chivers for ensuring he stayed on the straight an narrow rules wise too!

C56 Never Say Never will be available for viewing at Park and Ride from 11.00 on Easter Friday and, weather permitting, Geoff plans to take her down to the Brightlingsea Hard at 11.45 where a naming ceremony will take place. As well as a little something to toast the new arrival Geoff also promises Easter Eggs too so do come down and join in all the fun.
