eBay, Scoundrel to June 27, 2011, starting at $12K US. Pics show original stoppers and hatches. A shot of the cockpit would have been nice, but all the interior photos show wood and cushions in good shape.

I contacted the seller (Avi Brand) - That's hull #395 and it has been added to the class database.

I came across this posting for "Mojo" on ebay - the boat has a 4,999 reserve.

Sum of parts worth more than min bid.

For anyone handy this boat probably could be sailing with a 5 year update plan off season.

You don't have to make it perfect to sail this summer.

Shoot, the problems listed on the boat probably affect 80 percent of the fleet! Plan on new chainplates, I too had voids in the deck area around mine, and found them cracked nearly all of the way through. New plates, some epoxy for the deck voids, and she is good as new. Bottom looks really nice.

Looks like Mojo is a project boat in the Chicago area. Priced at $5,500 June 2012.

About this 30' 1979 J Boats J-30 Racers and Cruisers

1979 J/Boats J-30

PRICE REDUCED FROM 9995 TO 5500 JUNE 22, 2012 Mojo is a time tested racer, but can go cruising too. Some sails replaced 10 years ago. Nice Interior. The knotmeter may not operate properly. The wind speed/direction does not operate. The hull core bottom has some moisture amidships. The transom core is water saturated and delaminated at the top, near the top gudgeon and the vent fitting, for two to three square feet. There is some small area of delamination in the fore deck, at the vent fitting. This is a lot of boat for the low asking price.

Wish we could talk to the owner Painkiller in Chicago. She is at Crowleys needs TLC. She is another good project boat.

Kinesis late model hull #497 (corrected hull ID is probably TSP00497M84I, April 1984) in Salem MA, on eBay 'Buy it now' price is $19,550. One offer, presumably lower. Auction expires Aug 30, 2012.

Based on the answer to a question the boat appears to have been taken in trade from the previous owner who had it listed here on the Marketplace with a price reduction to $24,900 as of April 2012.

I just spoke to George the previous owner. He traded it as part os the deal for a powerboat. He and his wife loved the boat, but at 70 they found it a challenge to raise and lower the sails. He is sending me info on the broker who took it so we can follow-up to keep the class records up to date.
