Nice, looks super clean and unmolested in pics and fairly priced, IMO. If hull and rigging are as clean in person as they look in those photos ... WOW!

Great piece of history and opportunity for someone ... new HORBA member coming up!

It's going to take another decade or so for the look of that boat to become "fashionably classic". For me, it's still funky looking.

For $50k, I hope you're expecting your kids to go to community college! Dude, buy the boat!

I agree!
That boat is nice and has a look of its own, I would say it is a classic right now!

50k complete? Looks like a good deal. I have some snap shots of it with #13 on the side from Jan '85 other wise it looks the same. 23 years later it hasn't strayed far from home.

I'll have to scan it. I'll add them to the next weekend pile. I took the pictures from my boat in the inter coastal near Ft. Lauderdale in Jan 1985. The boat was apparently being tested. The boat is identical to the ones in the listing except the number 13 is in the white box. The merc decals and the flag are the same.
