TazzyDevil 9 Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 I'm selling my Elliot 10.5 after lots of work, time for a dedicated cruiser and a wee racer. If you are looking for a fun, spacious cruiser/racer that's well appointed and had's lot's of $$$ spent on her message me or give me a call on 0275 985 735. Currently out of the water and being antifouled next week for relaunch. Full receipts for all gear and work done. This boat would make a great lower budget RNI boat and is probably the roomiest 10.4 metre boat around for cruising. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DrWatson 331 Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 Sounds like she’d give Firefly a run for her money... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TazzyDevil 9 Posted September 9, 2020 Author Share Posted September 9, 2020 Still not sure what she is capable of, but with a new keel bulb she could really light up. Still very quick downwind, not quite the height upwind of the skinnier boats ( she is 4m on the beam). I recently removed an alloy bowsprit, she now sits a good 30-50mm higher in the bow which can only be a good thing for a snoutty boat. Will see when we go sailing next week. Fastest we have had was 18.5knots but 12-15 seems to be the sweet spot in a good send. when I got her the keel fin was a shambles so we faired that and that made a monster difference. A T- keel seems to fire these boats up. And with a 4m beam, water ballast would be useful. sadly keelboat sailing is in a poor state in whangarei and sport trailer yachts are where it’s at so that’s where I’m hoping to go to.

What did you do with the alloy bowspint? I'm actively investigating how to fit one to my boat... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
