THE Pirateer thread - conversation
Posted: Wed Jul 13, 2022 1:40 pm
I've recently acquired a Pirateer (1976 I'm pretty sure)
This seems to be the authoritative community, there's no Pirateer13.org or Facebook group, at least none that I can find.
Finding any information about the Pirateer has been disappointing to say the least. The manual is abysmal, and questions here go unanswered. I got more information about rigging this boat from this video than searching up and down the internet. And he must have a much more modern boat or customized it, with a boom vang and hiking strap.
So let's do something about it. I'm going to start another thread called THE Pirateer thread and I'll post everything I know, have found or figured out. My goal is to make the manual obsolete. We'll see how far we get.
So, are there any other Pirateer owners around? Chime in here.
