Oh scott. Old jib! Now your just rubbing patos in.
Can't wait to see you at N100.
Have a good trip over the pond and I might see you at the dock before the Vic Maui.

Be patient for a boat. There are 500+ made so there is another one on the market all the time. But as I said if you find a good hull it's sometimes worth the work.

Vampire had sat for close to ten years before I came along and she is doing very well now. She had one foot in the grave before I spent almost $20,000 on her. Everything is done now except the paint job.


Which reminds me.
Scott do you still have those templates for the keel?

You mean my keel templates? Hahaha. If you and Scott can get together to pass them off you are welcome to use them, but I would like them back at some point.

I have a J/30 on Lake Okanagan in the interior that I would consider selling. It had most of the factory options at the time including freshwater cooling, hot water tank, and the interior table. Like most of J/30's it needs a few things. If you are interested let me know and I can get you more information.

I'm interested Lakesailor. What can you tell me about its current conditon, what it needs, and what you are asking for it?

Of course it is the hot water tank that got my attention....kidding. Do you still have the trailer?

The trailer actually belongs to a friend who owns a CS30...I borrowed it to bring the J/30 up here and it fit the trailer very well. I am certain it could be borrowed again to move the boat back to down to the lower mainland.

PM me your email and I would be happy to send you more information on the boat including what it needs, price, and all of that good stuff....

They are sitting in my shed, and I haven't actually used them. I didn't have time in the last couple of haulouts to actually do the template work. that was going to be next year's project since I know I damaged my keel's trailing edge.

If Dom is all right with it, I will bring them over to you and then get them back. Or I can just make copies of them too.

Sure, not a problem Scott. I might still have one of the rudder templates in my garage too. When I find it I'll let you and Don know.
