Geoff 0 Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 Seeking advice on midnight 21, unable to view one in person, pics appear to show empty centreboard casing and seller insists it has a swing keel. Any variants on the listed design? Or is one of us a muppet? Pics of internal midnight 21 appreciated to compare. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin McCready 83 Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 If the seller is Rudolf Shack or Jason Wilson (possibly the same person) 0277127409, 0211452247, walk away. You cannot believe a single word that comes out of his mouth and he's a very sweet talker with lots of stories and excuses. Good luck. Or you could post the ad here too.

Geoff 0 Posted June 28, 2020 Author Share Posted June 28, 2020 All good thanks, fortunately I have happened on a tasman 20 locally and am now the latest owner of Bedlam. Any history out there appreciated Quote Link to post Share on other sites
malcolmdaniel 0 Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 I know its late , All midnight 21s ive seen are are a drop keel - above the short centrecase when inside the boat (like a pclass centreboarder ) - case is not enclosed floor to ceiling like a Noelex 25 or Ross 780 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Battleship 100 Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 I owned one years ago it was a swinging centre board with a winch to raise and lower in the cockpit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thats interesting the mag article on NZTYA website only says lift keel https://www.nztya.nz/blog/623058 https://www.nztya.nz/blog/623059 was it a one off wooden boat ?

Battleship 100 Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 No it was fiberglass. Perhaps one of the custom builds referred to in the article. Was a good little boat would plane downwind if there was enough wind. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
