What are you looking to do?

Are you looking for a "Historic Race Boat" or just something to play with?

thedonz

I would love a historic race boat but i don;t think i'm in that bracket money wise. i would love a good 24 from your days that i can play with and even race. project is fine if it's a good price. know of any

There is that yellow one on the west coast that Dregz found.

He said it had water in it, but talk to Ed Cozzi and he may have a contact that could look it over for you to see what the real cost would be to bring it back to life.

If you put a bracket on it with a single outboard, you can always update later to twins or trade it, on one of our new 24's in a couple of months.

thedonz

yea i know which one your talking about is that the one that was never rigged. but that one wasn't built buy you was it? wasn't that built by banana boat comp #2? i want the one from yours day (70's to mid 80's)

The yellow one on the west coast was a Charlie boat, but it has rotted stringers and apparently needs a lot of work according to Dregz.

I believe Charlie's last boat was built in 1979.

He could tell you better.

thedonz
