Due to my recent venture into the front of the boat, lack of time and money for the house building project I have decided to part with my boat.

Therefore:

3621 Raunchy is up for sale. Easy Roller by Full Force. Chipstow rig, carbon boom, pole etc. Very little sailed over the past three years. Combi trailer with under/over cover and Tacktick included.

£8250 o.n.o

Anyone interested please contact me on [email protected] or 07813 006823.

I couldn't find anything about the Easy Roller in the design guide. Was that me? Or is there not anything present?
How does it differ from other "modern" Merlins?
Does it carry [lots of] weight well, or is it a light-weights boat?
Best on sea/open waters/resticted?

Its all ther in the Modern Design Guide:

EZ Roller 

This design came about as a result of further work by Kevin Driver and input from Phil Morrison. It is the only Merlin Rocket so far that has been designed ‘from the ground up’ to be built in FRP, and has a very innovative internal layout. When they first appeared they were also the lightest Merlins being built, although the other builders have now caught up. 

The idea was to slightly modify the Let it Ride shape to give a more “all round” design. If you look at an EZ roller hull there is noticeably more rocker at the bow than the other designs being built today. There is also more rocker aft of the centreboard case, though the garboards are still very straight. This gives a hull that tacks better than the Let it Ride and is rather easier to get the best out of in lighter winds. Planing performance is very good, provided the boat is held absolutely flat. It is at it’s best in a sub force 3/4 and is a very good Salcombe boat. 

On the water they were a success from the start, but have never really achieved popularity with only 11 being built to the original shape. 3606 and 3634 have won the Nationals, Inlands and Salcombe week (a number of times!). 3612 has won the Inlands, and 3601 went very well too, just missing out on the major events. They seem to go best with about 22 to 23 stone on board. 

It can be summed up as being a good, competitive hull. Very much the equal of the other boats available and definitely worth a look.

THANKS, Rob. Sorry for not seeing it first time.
