Last time I heard about Flamingo, she'd gone to Queensland. That was about 3 or so years ago.

Correct Bob. I believe it's still in Queensland but carries the name "Mindy Ann" now.
It went up there about 6 years ago! Time gets away, doesn't it.

Sure does Greg.
I looked at that boat when it was for sale. The chap that has/had Cheryl D had it. Came very close to buying it but had too many other projects on the go at that time, so backed out of the sale. I have been in touch with the guy in Queensland, but that was one PC ago.

On a different subject, I saw Four B's last week. The guy that bought it off Jeff has it just about ready to hit the water. He had a boat many years ago but his ideas on skiffs are just a little bit "different".

Tried to talk him into taking it to Narrandera, and joining the club of course. He can't travel because they don't have anyone to look after their two cats.
Will take a pic next time I go to see him.

Here are couple of shots of Mindy Ann taken at Laidley in June 2014. 3 bags of cement in the front kept the hull trimmed.
