Honey, I saw this auction on the way home!

Post by 909Groomer »

I have finally gone sail after years of powerboats.
I have been wanting a sail for some time. I came across a c22 tapped it out with my trusty screw driver and for $1800 shes in the yard. She has no name and has sat in storage for some time. (6yrs to my knowledge) I have had for 2 days now and after getting into the bowels of this boat just looking. Ok if I'm right she looks fairly right for 39 yr old.
Sails 4bags gotta lay them out.? Wood is clean seats are vinyl and clean
Rigging looks clean. Mast is still down. I have some questions there. I have a a frame on bow. ??? Mast suport??? Pics I need to load pics.
I look forward to getting into this and then to sail her. I live in southern Cal. [/list]

any wood A-frames are typically for mast support during transport/storage.

Just a float is not a bad idea!
One of my babies was so rough when I bought her that I took her to the marina and off the trailer! Just to let her sit for a couple of hours at the dock!


Got some strange looks from fishermen that day when I launched her with the mast still on deck and not stepped! LOL!

There is quite the following. With all do respect, why? The boat feels very strong got that in my float. I have been researching them on line and feel confident in my buy.
Shout outs: Bill love the videos. Forum thank you for all the knowledge. Now for my ?'s Stepping mast whats the best way to single hand that thing up?
We have keel pin rust to. It's late and can't think right now. I look through fourm and getting most questions answered that way.
