Molds, Plugs, Glass - anyone want to build new Johnson 18s?
I own a Johnson 18 (http://www.johnson18.org/). Johnson Boat works
built this Rodger Martin design starting in 1995. In 1999 Johnson Boat works sold the molds to Catalina, who has been sitting on them ever since - and not building any boats. Current owners are hoping to grow the class but cannot without new boats being pushed into the market. This is just a quick note to see if any one knows anyone who would be interested in building new Johnson 18s, if the class organization can pry the molds away from Catalina. Also, since I have virtually no knowledge on the topic, how hard would it be to create a new pair of mold using a current hull as a plug? Thanks, Brian |
