2 “The Fisher sails as well as and better than some pure cruising yachts. Many long ocean passages have been made under sail; and in group boat tests and rallies the Fisher has always shown to be superior in most respects"

 

 

The Fisher Owners Association welcomes all of our members and sailing friends from around the world to this website



About The Fisher Owners Association and how you can take part in the Fisher Sailing Community


Our sailing year starts in late spring with a programme of rallies, which are well supported and take us to such places as Brittany, Channel Islands and around the coastline of the UK. Members organise themselves into small groups for the purposes of sailing in company, in addition to cross channel crossings, which gives great comfort to either the new or less experienced members.

Some members come for part of the rally or indeed join during the rally as their time permits. At the heart of these rallies and cruises in company are the social aspects, including dinners in the local pubs and restaurants which are much enjoyed by all. Calls at ports are often arranged around these great social and very memorable moments.

The FOA also has onshore social events and dinners where all members can meet and exchange their sailing news, recent sailing conquests, and of course those candid photographs taken while afloat tend to come out as well - just when you thought you had got away with it!

The FOA really is a great sailing and social entity in the company of people who really love and take great pride in owning the legendary classical Fisher Motor Sailor.

FROM THE COMMODORE


Dear FOA Members,
I hope the Spring has been well spent getting your Fishers into 'perfect' condition, and ready for the coming season.
In addition, I just wish to highlight some FOA Website changes. Our designers have been busy over the last couple of months and we have gone 'live'. Changes include clarity regarding Benfits of Membership on the front page, a completely new Fisher Classified Section, a new Forum Section for the Sale of Parts and a new Library Section (Members Only Area) with all the old Newsletters. These are quite significant changes and I must thank Al Gilmour especially, and of course all of your Committee, for all their inputs. I hope you will find the FOA website an improvement.
And now may I wish you all a great 2012 Fisher sailing season.

Best wishes,
Chris Morris
FOA Commodore
