    Boat Building Schools or Educational Programs in need of Molds?

    Can you tell me who/where they are? Even if they have plenty of molds, they might be interested in a different type/design that they may not already have, never hurts to ask.

    Boat Building Schools or Educational Programs in need of Molds?

    I have a very nice mold for a 17 foot planing dinghy that I have been trying to sell (cheap). No takers so far and I really want to free up space in my shop.

    International 505 Racing Dinghy Mold

    I'm still checking my back-ups for the pictures I had. As I mentioned before, it is stored indoors but there is a bunch of equipment in the way of taking new pics. I'll do my best to get pics up. If you are interested, please make an offer.

    The Arrow 1280S kit price is 90K USD with container shipping from South Africa. I have a quote from my Schionning for this but I also have a friend who has already purchased and begun construction of his kit on the east coast. I have broken down the contents of the kit in terms of total kilos...

    Crowther design 226A (42 foot cruising cat)

    Ummmm..... so I'm not going to get involved in the above posted.... er.... discussion; but I do want to clarify a few things. First off, I was a little confused. The Spindrift 37, Spindrift 40 (also called the Crowther 40), and Design 226A which is 42 ft, are three different designs. I was...
