I am as old as dirt and I may soon sail over the bar. I have accumulated a bunch of stuff that I'd prefer not end up in the landfill I will give some of it to anyone who can use it....free ............ pay shipping costs only.
1. Sail originally for International 10 meter canoe. Full battened 16 foot lift, big roach, sound condition, just old. Bolt rope luff.
2. sail from Hobie 3.5. I think it has about 17 foot lift. full battened. Shabby but intact. This thing pulled like a train.
3. sail from a boat I don't even remember. Had a bird name like Tern or whatever. About 18 foot lift 9 foot foot. Old, intact, useable.
4. Windmill jib. A really nice light to moderate air jib that has fallen victim to mice. Small easily patchable holes near tack.
5. 5.5 meter windsurfer sail. New never used, very pretty. Battened of course. this one I would want to sell for about $40 plus shipping.
6. I also have a bunch of small boat hardware, such stuff as snubbing winches, cam cleats, Harken blocks, A Seaway ratchet sheet rig, similar to Harken but with stainless ratchet wheel and cam cleat. will sell cheap or maybe free.
You can find me at Littleskiff1930@Gmail.com.
I also have a good sized library of boat nut books that I will give away. Perhaps I should not mention that here as the Forum has a book store with which I do not wish to unfairly compete.
Note: It would not be practical to ship battens with sails. If you take any of these you must supply your own battens.
I also have a very good 16 foot flattie skiff similar to a GIF. Well designed for solo sailing, or rowing. All Ocumee saturated with epoxy as in West system, has small 60 square foot sprit boom sail from boats like Bolger car topper or Gypsy. It is a sweet heart b oat that goes well with the tiny sail and goes like hell with a 2.3 HP outboard. It will actually plane when the outboard is full on. She would happily accept much larger sail and has adjustable mast support bridge so as to move the CE if needed. Will sell this boat for near nothing... IF ......I find a new owner who will treat it with the respect that it deserves. Located Lakeland Florida.
