It happened at Bough Beech.  I think it cost the guy £50 - I think the student did well.

I know a club where on your membership form you have option of paying a student at the uni that sails there to do your duty.  A pretty easy way to earn some cash for students, and means that the duties get done.  Works well for those who simply don't want to do a duty.....

It was a while ago (25 years to be exact) but I got a couple of half decent boats by contacting the owners.  These were the boats that had sat in the dinghy park for a couple of seasons without moving.  I contact the owners with a sob story about only having a saturday job and needing a boat.  The result was a firefly for £5 and an OK for free. 

Made a profit on both

very true, people who have decent boats that just sit there in the dinghy park really annoy me
