For Sale: Dinghy-building molds & tooling

[Benz]

I have all the molds and pieces for building three different dnghies: the 6' Pocket Pram; the Humbug 7 and the Oberon 9. These were all molds I made to produce dinghies in my backyard boatyard. Closed the business to go cruising just over a year ago, but didn't manage to get them sold then (Buyer turned out to be a flake hoping to get stuff for free). Back in California for a brief visit; here till March 18, first comer can have each set of molds for $500 or take all three for $1200. I made about seventeen dinghies in these molds and sold most of them (still got three I need to move also); they are all fiberglass (no wood in them), unsinkable, and the bigger two models can be made to sail or row. This is a great way to get fiberglassing skills, make a little money, and have the satisfaction of building your own thing--it's easy to add whatever features you want when you're the builder. Most of my dinghies wound up as tenders (my own tender is Hull#3 of the Oberon. Family of five, and we row everywhere). My dinghies always had a homemade sort of look, but depending on your level of fetish there's no limit to how finely they can be finished. Molds are fiberglass, so easy to repair/fair/modify. Buyer must arrange for pickup in Mariposa, CA. Come with cash--I've had more than my share of bad checks, liars, thieves and scammers.
