Didn't the damage of this 48 speed up the design/build/debut of the 50 that is the next gen of Cosker boats?? - which is better known as the Mystic C5000R

Idk if the damage on this boat speed up the building of the C5000 Callan had his Miss Longlite out pretty early in 05, but the Mystic C5000 was a copy of this Tencara.

It seems like John Cosker still owns the Tencarra, atleast according this old thread from 2007: offshoreonly.com/forums/general-boating-discussion/159455-callan-marine-tencara-sale.html. But why in the hell did he not fix the boat before trying to sell it ???

Couple 2x4's from Depot for structure and a roll or two flex seal tape and it would be good to go.

Because it could not be repaired to be safe at high speeds. I believe it had something to do with the type of original layup material that was used.

Really? that sounds very strange to me. The Spirit of Norway team in UIM class 1 repaired their boat inhouse in less than 10 days after a crash and this boat was a sister to the Callan Marine Tencara. I think the guys at Mystic could easily have fixed the boat and converted it to a pleasure boat if they had wanted to do so.

My neighbor owns it. $15k buys it.
if you want pm me for #.

And that's why it's sitting there.

Is your neighbour John Cosker? However, I`m certainly not interested in buying this half rotten boat. But if your buddy had used something like $10k to fix the boat and re-rigged her into a pleasure boat when the boat was in better shape then i`m pretty sure he would have got around $35-40k for it.
