 This boat is in good usable shape. Maybe a color change. Will last indefinatly with min. care and maint.
No rot found in the boat. Traditional look and Brand new gaff sails, from Dabbler sails..
Sails have never been used except in the photos. Trailer is roadworthy but some dryness starting in the tires. I pulled it 200+ miles with no problems.
Mast steps easily by one person, and is light weight and slides in a pocket. Rigs quickly and easily with deadeyes. Sails easily with a wheel.
I don't know who built it but it has a full length keel and also has a centerboard -- it does not enter the cabin. It is built  into the outer keel.
Boat can sail in shallow waters and can also be beached too.
Traditional look without the work.
You will get noticed on this boat.
Both have current reg.
Located in Lancaster NY.
Boat is also listed for sale locally and subject to early auction cancelation.
