1966
Wood hull built for a young lady by the name of Barbara Seeley, by her boyfriend who was a joiner called Jim Spence .
Late 1960s
Geoff Stevens takes up the story "It was renamed ‘Zebedee’ by the next owner, Terry McMahon, who was a teacher on an exchange programme from Hong Kong. He added a new set of Mountfield sails and the spinnaker before selling it to me and my father for the princely sum of £70. We had several memorable seasons racing it around Scotland, including several National Championships, before I went off to University and he continued sailing it with my younger brother and sisters in St. Andrews.

This boat is now available, free to a good home
I have a very old Mirror that I need to pass on, or otherwise dispose of.
The boat was kept for a long time in a succession of garage roofs, but over the last few years has been outside under a cover on a farm in Norfolk. The hull is sound but the gunwales need some attention. It is complete with 2 sets of sails, a spinnaker, spars, centreboard and rudder, anchor and running rigging. The shrouds need replacement. The boat is available with or without the combo road trailer in the photos.
I would be very happy to see Zebedee passed on as a renovation project, or to see parts and equipment put to good use by existing owners.
