"This is a project vessel that will need immediate attention prior to putting her back in the water. I would estimate that it will take $20,000 to get her sailing again, not including deck repairs."

That boat has been sitting and rotting/corroding away for decades on the Bay. It used to be up in Solomons Island, MD. Years back there was either a thread on it, or it was discussed in a thread. Short of a guy with the talent and resources of FoP, its a dreamer magnet, and leads each new dreamer to despair and ruin....

posted in exactly the right thread, though.

others are likely familiar - but I just ran across this. IOR* 42 footer. new build.

Omega 42: Rebirth of the Peter Norlin Classic |

*the claim is "ideal hull shape" and "not really IOR". but. I don't see it..

It's too skinny to be IOR but that stern looks like the rule was not entirely ignored.

Nice project and a beautiful boat but I'd wager they are going to lose their shirts on this.

The Omega42 is a real nice boat. Raced against the plug several times ( in the pre-season local wednesday club race) and she beat us 8 times out of 10. NB, she was single handled while we struggled as a complete crew with Albin Express / Mumm36 / X-79 / X-99 / X-102 / IMX38 / one tonner / and a few more

You can make money with sailboats, you just have to pick the popular ones and rehab them. The older I get, the more I realize how hard it is to flip boats that are orphans or odd builds so I stick to one designs now.

I'm a big fan of the 'Scandinavia skinny' thing - but hadn't realized that's what we were looking at here. okay.
