After 2+ years of trying (or not), I'm hanging up my boatbuilding spurs. I have a partially built (see previous post for current status of the build (I haven't touched her in over a year)) Pocketship with all of the marine-grade ply cut out and ready to assemble, 2 copies of instruction manual, all plans and patterns, and fiberglass. I kept all scraps too (which does come in handy).
The new owner will have to arrange shipping or pick up. I will tell you, this does fit in the back of a >18' Uhaul, so with the casters I installed on the cradle, it's relatively easy.
Also, up for negotiation, I may include the table saw, router, workbench, 6' folding table (real handy), and 25lb lead bricks and lead-shot bags. I even have one of those portable tent/canopy/garages I was planning on storing her in up for sale.
Why am I selling (everyone will ask)? Between losing my motivation over time, ending a long-term relationship, getting older, and having to move to Texas for work (not because I want to), I've decided to let it go too.
All reasonable offers will be considered and after an unspecified amount of time (during 2015) the best one gets her or off she goes to the bone yard.

ReplyDeleteIf you would like to go for a sail in a Pocketship when you get to Texas, let me know.
ReplyDeleteSounds like fun. Which part of Texas? I'm aiming for Grapevine area. Could end up in Euless or somewhere in the middle.
DeleteI'm down in Corpus Christi. It is way down south on the coast.
DeleteI fly for free and love to sail. Especially PS. A little chilly this time of year but let's keep in touch and hopefully meetup in Spring.
