Blue Waves : Rig Drawing
Ben McMinn owns Hightime, one of around fifty boats built in the 1950s to Alan Buchanan's Wind Elf design. Amongst his Hightime documents he has the rig drawing for another Wild Elf, Blue Waves which he has kindly sent in. Although I have no recent information on Blue Waves (October 2024), the drawing is likely to be of interest to Wind Elf owners, hence this page.
