How original is she?

I was asked this in the yard today and the answer is surprisingly original. The main changes have been to the Starboard cockpit seat where there was a Stuart Turner generator. On the same side in the cabin there was a fridge and oil skin locker; these have been adapted to be a quarter berth and remains that way to this day. The rig remains the "Slutter Rig" which was so famously experimented on by Laurent Giles. The rig remains but the 22ft long gigantic genoa is now roller reefed and controlled with barbour haulers instead of tracks.
