Pretty good looking boat and very hard not to be tempted.

Wonder what mods have been done for racing?

Would be a great boat to use on day trips around the state.

Looks like there is a gold spar mast, maybe a bit taller than the original? The boat is very roomy ith 2 cabins and a good size cockpit. Cisco has been sailing one I believe. It is designed for WA conditions as well one of my club old member use to race one.

For $4,000 that is a hell of a cheap price for a quality yacht. The design is more than 30 years old and still very relevant in sailing today. It has all the gear. It will not last long and it has a trailer too.

It would cost me $4,000 or more to come and get it. You should buy it Felix. Sail it a bit so you know what you got then hide it for 6 to 12 months then put it on the market for $12,000 or more.

Wish I could Cisco, sandwich maker said no! I have no storage and she would not let me spend another $700 for another hardstand. The guy is "negotiable" would offer 3.5K. I am trying to interest my mate................. so I could go for a sail time to time.

You could say "You just stick to making sandwiches and I will look after the important things."

I doubt she will warm to that concept though.

Could find myself becoming a permanent Wildfire dweller after a comment like that
Not enough space for fridge TV and creature comfort!
