  1. This is Kicks keel, not the latest design but step up from the Jandal and has the diesel tank in the fin. Draught of 2.3 which i believe is a common depth for the new keel? Unsure if this is the original keel or not?
  2. Yes rig is definately taller and hear it was 790mm taller and she was launched with a deeper keel without jandal, unsure if the current keel is the original? And also raised cockpit with out seats. I may be wrong but heard Ian is the foremena for Craig Partridge Yachts? Or is that old news?
  3. I had a look on that 1 while i was over in aus doing survey on Kick and it has soft patches in the deck. I wouldnt even say it is comparable to squealer.
  4. I am really interested to hear about the history, the differences, weights and anything you know about all the 1050’s and hopefully I will learn something about Kick along the way? And go....
  5. Thanks, have spent a lot of time and money getting her there. I do hope someone out there gets as much enjoyment racing and cruising her as we have.
  6. Probably best to just spend the extra money so there is no regrets in the future.
  7. Those were my exact thoughts just extra $1000 between the 2 hurts the pocket
  8. Looking at a new unit for the new boat and want to see what people think between the vulcan and the Zeus? I keep going back to the zeus because of the ability to use buttons and it will be out in the cockpit? Thoughts?
  9. Will be good to have 2x E1050’s racing in the GHYC/WBC races.
  10. Hi Mark aussie prices do seem a bit cheaper than NZ but you have to factor shipping/delivery costs plus gst so that does add a big chunk on and of cours the exchange is going the wrong way currently
  11. nothing locked in yet, but we are looking at end of June once the delivery skipper gets back from Tonga.
  12. Hi has just bought and Elliott 1050 and need to deliver it from sydney to Auckland. flights and food paid for. after people with good sailing experience. Thanks Brendan
  13. got a bit of tidying up to do when she gets back but excited to get out racing and cruising on her! Will most likely not do any racing on her until Meister sells.
  14. Thanks, yes will definately be waiting for the right weather window.
  15. Hi Guys So we are now the new proud owners of Kick and she is coming home. We are looking for some delivery crew so if you are keen pm me. Flights and food will be paid for, so if you are up for an adventure please get in contact. Thanks Brendan
  16. Just the logistics around shipping over and can pretty much make money back when you arrive
  17. At this stage will be looking at end of June departing aus.
  18. Is this a good idea? Purchase a liferaft in aus for tasman trip and then sell for a reduced priced afyer delivery trip. I get my boat home and recoop some cost while someone gets a brand new liferaft for a reduced price. Thoughts?
  19. Depends on how you intend on shipping, sailing is inexpesive if you have a keen bunch of mates or people up for and adventure. Duty is not applicable only Gst after many different stories. What did the last 1050 sell for NZ?
  20. Circumstances have changed an maybe buying new boat so wont be requiring one anymore. Thanks
