Two Hulls gets my attention, the Diesel one, how rigged and the non rigged one what did it become?

I don't remember. I think trip Yanmars maybe??? Stinson may know.

The non-rigged is set up for trips, and last I heard never rigged. Wanna buy it?

The 36 is from a dammed 41 mold and they reworked the bottom to fit the length!!!!

I can tell you first hand, the 28 is a awesome hull. Very forgiving and handles the rough stuff like no other. I have ran in the high 70s with 5 people on board in rough stuff along side some much larger boats(Cig 42X, 37 Active Thunder and 42 fountain) and i have held my own and had no problem...
