Guest Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 I just picked up my third boat (like I need that). The two hulls were stripped to bare wood about 5 years ago, then sat in the guys garage. With it came two main beams, two rudder heads and the tiller bar, 1 tiller, 2xcentreboards, mast boom sail (a bit old). standing rigging Missing - paint, inspection ports, two rudders, 1 tiller, tramp, mainsheet and assorted hardware, trailer, and probably some other bits. So what should i do? Rescue it and have a non competitive PT that is really too small for my delicate frame? Try and sell it? Break it up for spare parts OR (I like this one) build a centre hull and call it a tri (but I have too much other stuff on to do that) Any other ideas? Link to post Share on other sites
rigger 47 Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 you do have a vessel with one smaller hull and a larger hull - some here might suggest you could make a proa into a tri Link to post Share on other sites
wheels 543 Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 If you sold it, what wouldyou want for it Squid? I might be keen. Link to post Share on other sites
SloopJohnB 322 Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 I can add to your bits. 1 Lidgard main 1 Linton main 2 centerboards - 180mm chords i think. 1 1/2 rudder blades the other 1/2 is floating around Nelson. 1 suspension tramp. BTW whats the weight of the hulls? Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 The trinardo is wha tI had in mind. Wheels, if you want it , it is yours, just need to pick it up from my mum's back yard (says it all really ) maybe by getting together with SJB you can piece enough together to make it sail - I was really just saving it from the bonfire. I'll think of a favour you can do me someday. Link to post Share on other sites

wheels 543 Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 A PT was my very first sailing boat and I was saying to KM just a few weeks back that I wish I still had it and wouldn't mind finding another someday. Link to post Share on other sites
