Winston29 71 #14324 Posted September 22, 2020 I don't know their history very well, but that sounds right. I heard they lost their lease a couple of years ago and had to move a few miles to a new yard. Spot on with the 20+ years. They sell ancient boats that have sat out in the sun for decades, and they ask ridiculous prices for them. It's too bad, too.

No. They are not rudders. They are "rutters," which is the accepted terminology for in-water foils intended by their incompetent designer and/or builder to provide steering but are too small, structurally inadequate, and given insufficient leverage & control mechanism, to work as rudders. This term generally implies a multihulls but it's not a strict part of the definition. Also, it implies that the designer and/or builder studied 10,000 designs but didn't learn a damn thing as well as rejecting well-meaning advice or instruction from those who know better. Aside from that, this boat is not even 85% complete. Is it legal? FB- Doug 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Winston29 71 #14334 Posted September 23, 2020 7 hours ago, Ajax said: Yeah, ads in all caps that scream MUST SELL NOW!!!! do not inspire me. That's your problem, bud. My impression, based on the fact that their ads have been running, in many cases, for several years without any change in price, is that they're in no hurry at all to sell their old, used (up) inventory. They have a giant, sparsely used yard, so they're in no real need to make space and could care less how long it takes. CL makes it easy to ask too much, without losing any of their own money in the process. To me, using all caps simply suggests a lack of intelligence and/or understanding that NORMAL PEOPLE DON'T WRITE LIKE THAT. Or perhaps the poster has poor eyesight and doesn't know how to enlarge the font, on their end at least, to make it easier to see what they're writing. I didn't notice the rudders (Rutters) right away. Come to think of it, they do look awfully small for a boat of that size. As for how the amas mount to the main hull (Vaca?). It appears they simply bolt on. (I'll bet that Mustang's for sale too, but at $40,000, they're not getting any takers) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Too small to be turned upside down and made into a shed. Too big for a planter.... maybe a whole raised bed garden, if you already had the hole to set it in? A bare hull is the most useless thing in the world, and all the rigging, sails, fittings, etc etc, to turn it into a boat again, are very expensive when bought individually at retail. The cost and the labor would be far far more than buying a working boat. I'm kind of irked they would do this, as it's more likely to turn people who mistakenly jump on it AWAY from sailing.

Alternatively, it's big enough that it would make a nice small shed if dragged to a back corner of the yard, turned upside-down, and a door cut in the side.
