I found a sailing blog posted by Eric Swenson a few years back, and he was then sailing a different boat also named Toscana, so the name went with him and he was still sailing, by then well into his eighties, evidently (as he was 61 in the '79 Fastnet). Also, the Swan Toscana that sailed in the '79 Fastnet was a 47, not a 48...sorry about that mistake. I am still hoping to find the boat, though. |

Geoff, you were right that it was a Swan 47. One one his crew in that race was the well known writer, John Rousmaniere who wrote the book Fastnet Force 10.
