This Spray 40 was the first Roberts designed Spray and was built at Marine Park Brisbane in 1968 for Charlie Jupp.

Hi Bruce, I sailed on the first 'Spray' you designed built by Charlie Jupp across the Pacific years ago.

 A cyclone done its best to pull the boat apart and loosing the rudder back-sliding down waves didn't help. Still, Spray did get us to land safely for which I hold the boat in high esteem. I have since owned several boats myself and sailed many oceans but never experienced anything such as what Charlie and I went through on that one particular leg.

Kind Regards  Rick Ganly

This modified version of the Spray 40 pilot is set up with the junk schooner rig that is ideally suited to the Spray 40 pilot - the boat plans that come with the kit or cutting files show several alternate rigs including Cutter, Ketch, Junk rig etc.

Hi Bruce,

Thanks for the quick reply.
I enclose pictures of my Spray and some editorial that the local paper ran after I brought her back from Copenhagen earlier this year. We are due to re launch in April of this year.

I find her to be ideally suited for two to live aboard and she gives the impression of immense strength, and well able to look after the crew as I found out in the North Sea!      Kind regards Mick Taylor.
