Sailing/Rowing dink

I have a little (8 foot, maybe a bit less) dink looking for a new home. Fiberglass complete with plenty of stress cracks, a fine mold/red algae exterior patina. Fiberglass liner ensures maximum weight. Aluminum centerboard that kind of stay up. Rudder attaches to some pretty sketchy looking gudgeons, includes sail and a boom, but no oars or mast to ensure it does not become useful. I keep it at the house to service the pond fountain. $300 or offer.

Located Ft Myers FL area.

Re: Sailing/Rowing dink

It finally quit raining enough to take a picture or two of any interior and some measurements. She is 7'4" long and a sveltde 49 inch beam. No hull ID Number imprint confirms but she's an oldie.

Re: Sailing/Rowing dink

First: thanks for the laughs! Like most of us, I'm an inveterate "boat for sale" reader and your description is priceless. It did cause my 25 year old daughter sitting on the couch to look up with her "Yes, he really IS crazy" look.

Looks like a nice little boat, I'm in Baltimore, but if I was closer I'd definitely be interested. Good luck selling her.
