After a long break, I bought a Magnifik Midget in 1991. The boat was fun to sail after so long time on dry land, but it was a bit small for serious voyaging….. I had it only one season.
Hi Magnus, hej pe dej ! My Swedish is very limited. Regarding the Magnifik Midget I am told one of the designers is a “Sonderburg” or “Soderburg” I have purchased a 1976 version it’s called an “Iona 23” but I really want to verify the date of build ? Where they were built etc, as I would like to make a website dedicated to the Iona 23, I am told the hull is the same and possibly made by Banhams of Cambridge UK. If you can help me in any way I would be most grateful. Tac. hej dor ! Adam Kingdon.
Hi Adam,
