A furling code 1 type sail, so can go upwind in the really light stuff, and also tight reaching a little further up the range.

 

Sets in about 1knt of breeze and is a mean sail for drifting around in the middle of the night, Coastal or Tauranga spec. It's 0.5oz Nylon.

 

Been used about 5 or 6 times. Would suit a light, low righting moment boat, SR26 or similar.

 

Think the luff is around 12.5m, foot is about 8m? Have to measure it properly sorry. Furler not included.

 

$750

 

Sail and furler sold

She been antifouled etc? Will there be a launching party? :wave:

 

I need to get her out of the shed to shoot the new waterline, so antifoul after that. Probably won't have enough money for a launch party ha ha! It will be tap water from a milk bottle over the bow at this rate!

I'm selling some winches to try and offset a portion of the $1000 I paid for the piedy and the subsequent $150 I've spent ripping her apart and taking most of her to the tip.

 

2 x Lewmar 7's - Pretty good condition. Easily the best thing on the boat when I bought her. Comes with a stainless bracket and portion of rotten deck still attached. $100ea

 

1 x Maxwell 16. - Reasonable condition $50.

 

 

There's also 1 x small bronze old school winch. But I've since taken a liking to it, so might keep it for novelty value. Unless someone really needs it to match another winch on a classic, then we can do a deal.

There's 4 pawls in a maxwell 16 I think, Hutton winches in Aus will pay $20au each for them. Now, if you could just find another 33,000 of them you'd be a millionaire and have your boat done in no time. You're selling some very cool stuff but like you I need to sell not buy. I would have bought the lewmar winches but I just bought some pawls from Aus for $40 each and fixed some old Maxwells. :crazy:

I’ve always got my eye out for cool stuff. Although that Vespa whilst looking very nice really was a heap of rubbish. It was 90cc but man it was just too slow. So slow, that riding it in any kind of traffic was a cold sweat ordeal. So I upgraded to a bicycle mainly for safety reasons. Still have one fridge, although they draw about 8kw. So I use it as a cupboard so as to not double my power bill.

 

I know the winch parts are really hard to get. The pawls are good in these winches, so I guess this will be a bargain for someone out there. I just don’t like bolting old gear back on what will a nicely done pretty well new boat. Makes a nice job look half ass.
