If anyone still has their boat for sale can they please inform me as most of the adverts on the for sale page are out of date, and i desperatly need a boat for salcombe and the champs, price range max 1k as thats all i could afford alternatively if any kind fellow would consider lennding their boat to me i would be very grateful unfortunatly i cant offer a spinniker or any thing like that as im just a poor student, 

Cheers

Which boats are sold?

can update teh list then!

Well some of the adverts are a year plus old also not gettin a response from others could just not like me, so thought it would be easier if i filterd my search by asking who still has their boats in my range for sale as i need a boat quick fast!

Has 3425 "Heart of Darkness" gone?  That looks like quite a good one on paper.

Sacre bleu is knackered I'm afraid - unless it's been fixed over the winter.

Thanks for the help.
Could someone lend me 2k please ;p.

i've recently bought 3210 off of the lists, so if you want to remove it, it'd save the previous owner a load of annoying phone calls.

Thanks guys,
Ian

Also removed.

That's 3 in one night!!

If you enquire about a boat and it's sold please let me know and it'll be dealt with. If the owner can't be bothered to tell me i need to find out any which way i can!

Heart of Darkness only went up a few days ago, so i'd think it's still available.

I bought the hoop off the equipment for sale page some weeks ago.

Mark, have you tried contacting 3394?  It's up for £1500 but it has been on the list for ages and it does ask for offers, they just might be able to get down to the price you can afford especially if they sell the combi trailer separately and you rely on the Fuller double-stacker

Success! still for sail bit of a road trip but woohoo i can sail again maybe

Is their any chance anyone could give me some info on a WAPB, ideal weight etc cheers

WAPB in design guide see link below

yeah i saw that thanks looks like im gnna have to put some pounds on

3279 is up on ebay, £300 no bids 4days to go

WAPB looks to be similar to ROTS.  James Pearce was sailing the original ROTS last year at opens and the champs, admittedly with a very good rig, and it went well without a lot of weight in it.  There were only 2 boats built to this design, neither are well-known.  However it is a much closer shape to the CT than anything else you will get for £1000.  If you are able to get some cast-off bits for the rig later it may be a very good buy.  Jacko himself may well have some information on the boat and the design if nobody else knows.  The boat on e-bay is a Bad Company, with that narrow transom you really would struggle in a blow downwind.  Good luck!

I had the first HBR, which was a slightly modified WAPB.

Performace wise the HBR was tremendous, almost untouchable, offwind in anything above a force 4 while still retaining some performance to windward though nothing special.

In strong winds it was also very easy to sail.

In light winds it was always a bit like sailing a 10 ton lorry!!

The boat i had was deckstepped and i did put a SS carbon rig on it too.

3394 might actually be Jacko's old boat - he owned one for quite a while as the design was intended for himself.

Cool thanks really appriciate all the support and help. Ill hopefully be back on the water in a merlin again soon.

Further to Mark's problem i've now emailed every owner on the list to try and get the list bang up to date.

This was last done in September so it's about time really.

great nice to c ive influenced some organisation ;p just to let u no deals been made on 3394, great news is that its pink so look out for a pink blurr next time your out and about.

Mark, I'm sure you'll look very pretty in pink.

Pink is a GREAT colour!!!!  Go for it!!
