When I lived in Baltimore I always had a sailboat in the garage. Some I sailed some I worked on but it was a fun hobby. With my retirement in front of me I decided that scooting would get boring every day and that having an alternate activity would be fun. So I picked this up off of marketplace last night. All in all it's in good shape for it's age. The trailer needs new tires and all of the running rigging needs replacing but it will be fun to mess around in some of the lakes near me.  |

Thanks everyone. I will keep you up to date. I'm trying to see how far I go before I put it in the water.

I'm in Winston-Salem, NC. It will just be lakes for now. We have some small to huge lakes within an hours drive.
