I bought a Nimrod 18 several years ago and just let is sit.
I finally have decided to re-furbish it.
Please contact me if you have a Nimrod 18 and maybe we can exchange details. My rudder is certainly not original.

It comes either as a fixed or retractable keel. It's rightly classed as a three in one boat: A spirited planing racer, a comfortable daysailer or a cruiser for weekend adventures.
