Idun
Page published 7 November 2005
Jakob Poulsen discovered the site in March 2005 and sent pictures of his SeaHawk, Idun (#349). He has had the boat for seven years sailing around the bay of Århus, Denmark. Jakob has not seen any other SeaHawks near him and asks if he is the only one. Eva Pedersen, is Jakob's girlfriend and is on the helm in this first picture.
"As you see, the orginal colour is green. Maybe a rare model?" said Jakob in his e-mail. Certainly, no one else has yet sent pictures of a boat in that shade.
The roof bracing seen through the cabin window and cockpit lockers set well aft tell that this is a four-berth version of the SeaHawk. (A view of the interior of the boat appears in the Description Section of the site) The lockers are of the type that would have been produced by Reedcraft, making this a 1970s boat.
Jakob sent a picture of Idun being launched in the spring. He did not make clear if whether this was an annual event or if he normally keeps the boat on his trailer. Certainly, the final picture here appears to be taken in winter, as there is snow on the decks of Juno. Jakob called this "Meeting at Sea". It's not clear whether everyone looks so miserable because of the temperature or because they'd all rather be sailing a SeaHawk!
