      Buddy built a nice boat. It took him a year to build. It was really cool getting to go sailing on it.

      He did a great job on this boat. It will probably be the queen of the Texas 200 fleet.

    That thing looks like great fun! What are the sails from?

    • @willrobertson14

      The main is from a compac suncat 17, jib has been replaced with a Catalina 14.2 roller furling and the front sail was from a thrift shop and has been recut for the boat. He has since added a top sail he sewed himself.

    LOA?

    • @willrobertson14
      @willrobertson14  7 місяців тому +2

      The original length was 17 feet but he added a 3 foot extension to the transom. It doesn’t affect the loa while sitting flat in the water but does lengthen when healed over.
