Re: Invader as first yacht

A chap called Geoff Richings has restored one and keeps her on the Axe 
at Uphill, taking her out to sail on the Bristol Channel.

His website detailing the restoration and his various trips since can be 
found here:

I'd point your mate at it if he wants a taste of what he's setting 
himself up for. Geoff Richings seems to have done a lovely job on 
restoring his, and would appear to be quite happy with her as a first 
yacht.
