Default possibly a new boat

Jon,

I guess you know that, in its day, that wasa real speed burner. A lot of
racing fleets ( wooden racing boat) Wouldn't allow them to race (Fibre
Glass) They were excluded. They changed racing

That said, They are pretty long in the tooth. A thing to look for is
leakage on the joint of the flat top two the hull. This was done in the
early days. There was still a lot to learn about fibre glass. If my
memory serves me the seam was hidden under a rather wide trim check for
water damage.

They were good sailing boat. They are well past their time but still
fair sailors

It will be a big brother for your 20!

If you find water sign and point it out, I bet the price could be forced
lower

Ole Thom
