Rob Johnstone - Lockdown: Kit boat

Meet 'The Swallows' - The Swallow Yachts Association Swallow Yachts began its journey by offering kit boats and has since grown to develop a distinguished range of modern sailing yachts, as well as the handcrafted wooden motorboat, the Whisper300. Rob, a long-time friend of the Newland family, has owned two Swallow Yachts and sailed in many of our raids. In 2023, we had the pleasure of sitting down with him to discuss his experiences sailing around Britain in Vagabond a BayCruiser 23 and his new self-build project, Lockdown. Rob shares insights into his boating adventures, including the Lockdown build, on his blog, which you can explore here: https://rifrafatsea.wordpress.com/.
