Re: Cheap Multis and Projects

I think I saw that wingsail boat on the cover of Popular Mechanics.

I think we might have the winner here. Oh wow, talk about a good idea gone bad!

Re: Cheap Multis and Projects

Your dog is like a life-partner for you right now. It's not just the boat that is holding you back. If your dog is not suited for cruising, no boat of any size is going to solve your problem.

Re: Cheap Multis and Projects

Worth a see, if you can do it. Probably too small for cruising with a dog. Possible money scam.

Re: Cheap Multis and Projects

It also needs a boat.

This is a collection of boat parts, it is not a boat!

For reference, they call a Wharram here in Hawaii a "Double Canoe", even if it has a sail on it.

Re: Cheap Multis and Projects

There is no deal good enough to get me to buy a wharram.

However, that boat appeared to be fully rigged. There is probably about $5k in salvage on that boat, if the buyer has the ability to...

Wow, and I just left the area... At 20k, I don't see how you could go wrong - finding a slip for it will be your biggest problem from the looks of it.

Re: Cheap Multis and Projects

This is probably my all-time favorite thread - My interest has changed from "I want a cheap boat help me find one" to "now I know why I'll spend $300k for a french built factory boat"

Re: Cheap Multis and Projects

That is nice! I wouldn't live on it full time, but it looks like a great traveling boat. I'd go a few weeks at a time on her. I'd consider living on her solo if I were in the tropics.

There are some good homebuilts, but this thread has really brought out some bad ones.

Re: Has anyone in WA seen this boat?

The more I see of these custom builds, the more I like the factory produced units. At first, I see the price and think "I could learn to like that", and then I realize what a mess it would be to...

Re: Cheap Multis and Projects

Is it really a boat? It looks like a floating dock. Or am I looking at the wrong thing? Like a dock?

Wow, I can't even believe they can call that a "boat". Or that they're asking for money for it.

Re: Cheap Multis and Projects

I've lost the contact information, and the craigslist listing is gone.

Does anyone know if the boat has been sold? Or have the owner's contact info?

Re: Cheap Multis and Projects

I've got a lead on a job in Seattle. But this is one ugly-assed boat, and appears to have no windows. If it was a bit smaller, it might make a fair weekender/racer.

If I get the job, I'll go see...

Re: Cheap Multis and Projects-Cantana

Theory: Many of these smaller/older catamaran styles are originating from northern europe, and appeal mainly to people from that background - i.e. people living in the northwest.

I'll be driving the east coast today from Miami to St Augustine. If anyone knows of any cheap cats to look at similar to the iroquois, I'd be happy to see them on my way north.

Sand Crab, I'm loving these posts. Please keep it up. I may just find my next boat through this thread! I've actually looked at a few of these as potential purchases.
