I don't have many details yet, but it looks like we're going to get this
as a donation. All I know is that it is not a fix-it boat, except for
routine
diesel filter change that is due. Sails have seen very little use.

Anyone have any experience with this type of boat?

I had a Yamaha 80. Was the best piano I ever had. Keyboard action was =
great and when tuned, stayed in tune. The brightwork was =
excellent...pecan exterior, cherrywood soundboard, I believe. If the =
boats are built as well as Yamaha pianos, then it's probably great.

I went on one at the Annapolis show a number of years ago when Yamaha tried
unsuccessfully to enter the US market. I thought it was just another average
boat. Yamaha should stick to motorcycles. Or is it PWC? Or is it stereo
equipment? Or is it musical instruments?

Hey Katy, I still have a Yamaha 80, although it's down in MD now with some
kid riding it.

I'm reasonably certain the footpeddles are missing.

Another average boat would be fine for us. It'll be a light
cruising, mostly training boat.

Yamaha has made excellent motorcyles since the 1960s, and excellent musical
instruments since the 19th century.

I've sailed on a Yamaha 26 and a 36, but not seen a 30. My impression is
that they are quite well built, but not stellar performers. Should be a
great club boat.

A friend of mine got a Yamaha 26 for quite low price. I've noticed these
boats don't seem to drawmuch interest on the market. Don't know why.

I think the bass would be better than the high notes.

I'm looking forward to teaching on it. Here's a pic. For some reason,
the owner never put the current tags on it, but he does have them...
strange. He only owned it for 16 months, but decided he doesn't
sail enough to justify owning it. Can't beat for free...
