Vega-themed dinner set

Hi!
While on my vacation cruise I met up with a couple who partly owned a series 2 vega (can't remember the #). They proudly told me the boat still had an original Vega-themed dinner set, ie. plates and so on. Never having heard of such a thing I immediately started googling for one, and found one or two boats being sold with said set.

Anyone else heard of these, and I wonder if someone like vegamarin.se would be willing to produce a quality plastic set with Vega logos :)

BR,

For what it's worth, my Vega (1060) came with a complete set of plates, silverware, bowls, cups and even little shot glasses, all with the Vega symbol or an actual engraving of a Vega under full sail! The plates and bowls are real china, not plastic; fortunately, there are carefully cut-out wooden shelves in the cupboard that hold all of this securely. (Not sure wether that was built by a previous owner or standard equipment).
I have to say that it probably was the selling feature when we first looked at her - especially for my wife. ;-)

I'd be interested in a photo of the cupboard(s) layout - such that my would be even more happy with a better-laid-out Vega. I'm always keen to "tune things up".

Hi Kevin,

sorry for my VERY late reply - I was out of internet connection for several weeks.
I will take a picture next time I make it to my Vega.

Hello, my boat is 2144. It has been offshore about 6 years ago and is set up with harken furler, mast steps, and has been gone through in wiring, rigging, lighting, and has great gelcoat . There are beautiful velour blue cushions inside , near new, that alone cost several thousand . 2 headsails and good mainsail with the boat. THe volvo engine has come out and is awaiting another diesel, a kubota universal M 16 fresh water cooled diesel that is to be installed. THe boat is on a trailer
that has been modified for the boat and is a most strong 2 axle trailer that has good working brakes and near new tires . THe boat on trailer can be transported anywhere. It comes with the trailer. We are selling the boat most regretablly to cover costs on the bigger boat we use that have come up . I want this to go to an appreciative buyer who understands these boats. It is clean, revarnished, and needs no upgrades,accept finishing the engine install. that I may assist in with help I have available to get it done affordably. Call me at 415 713 6876 for pictures and details

I finally managed to take photos and upload them. Look at the last 4 photos posted under "VegaLyra" in the "Photos" section. The dinner set is kept in the cupboard above the stove (port on my Vega). Every plate, cup, shot glass, bowl and even flatware has a Vega symbol or an actual image of the Vega imprinted on it. I'm curious to find out whether this is something common among Vegas or whether it may be a "one-off" design?
