No too many Olson 911's with wheels. The 911s is a great boat, but this one, as Sloop points out will need some effort to make race-able...fixed 2 blade prop needs to go, bottom paint looks like it was applied with a 1" nap roller, wheel needs conversion back to a tiller, needs some sails, etc, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blue Crab 1,064 #1819 Posted December 13, 2020 Plus I think it's kinda mockworthy. I follow this CL board like the rest of you check the obits and this seller has offered various boats for awhile. He always has two. Maybe always the same two. On one series of ads he was offering women a liveaboard boat (to include sailing lessons and who knows what else) for $1 and affordable payments. That ad was my fav because it ended with "if you don't even have a dollar in yer pocket, don't call." I'd bet $3K cash would get that vessel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I crawled back to the cockpit to see my wife bailing out the muddy water in the cockpit with one of the planters.

feist 12 #1875 Posted January 17 RAN1 for sale again. Besides the riveted deck it looks pretty sweet at $70k https://www.yachtworld.com/boats/1987/custom-beason-40-3748352/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Besides the riveted deck it looks pretty sweet at $70k https://www.yachtworld.com/boats/1987/custom-beason-40-3748352/ Weirs twin cockpit layout, separated by a climb-way-up bridgedeck with the traveller on top, and no grab rails. All a bit reminiscent of the S&S Swans, which have the high bridgedeck but only one cockpit. , Seems to be a bit of marmite thing, but I am not a fan.

kinardly 192 #1877 Posted January 18 Good Lord! This is either a scam or there is something seriously wrong with the boat at that price. The photos show a boat worth triple that at least. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crash 570 #1878 Posted January 19 How about Bob's Old Fart 20? At $12k, that's a serious steal I'd think....has a trailer, so moving it to where you are is not overly expensive either... https://www.sailingtexas.com/202101/sperry20101.html 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fuji 32, worm gear steering, on my 34 wheel was at back of cockpit so sit beside it. Owned a 34 for about 10 yrs. in the 80's. Comfortable boat, we did the Thorny Path to the Caribbean in it. Bit of a pig to weather so it took awhile but we were comfortable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Diarmuid 663 #1885 Posted January 24 Possibly intended as a trailer sailer? There are no marinas or moorings on the lakes around here. A few down on Cherry Creek Res and Lake Granby; but the vast majority of boats are either dragged from home or dry-sailed. We've never anti-fouled our SJ21, even the summer we left it on a self-installed mooring. Bottom was perfectly clean when we pulled it out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Slick470 144 #1888 Posted February 4 It looks like they found the exact same color blue as painters tape for the interior. Seems like a nice boat though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SloopJonB 8,355 #1889 Posted February 4 Yeah, the Arborite and the Herculon upholstery would have very limited life expectancy if I was to buy it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
