Owners Comments

We are the 3rd owners from new. Much loved example of the Stella class. Burnham Week Class Winner & Runner-Up (several times with previous owner). Last survey: February 2001. 2004 saw a lot of work on Star Fox’s bright work, spars, rigging & decks. We then had a brief season before heading back to the shed, where Star Fox has rested during the 2005, 2006 & 2007 season due to other commitments.
