Looking at a
purchasing a Kirby 36 IOR
Racer on
Lake Ontario.
The
boat appears to be in fair shape, with the exception of the
mast step needs repaired. She's been a been a bit neglected, but all in all seems to be a good deal.
Issues:
Previous owner
lost snapped the
mast as the base, and a completely new mast and
rigging was installed 4 years ago. The
marine ply and block under mast step has rotted out from
water leaking down the mast and will need
repair.
Anti-Skid decking needs to be reapplied
One spot on the
deck under one of the winches that is soft and has started to collapse. The balsa
core will need to be replaced.
Just wondering if anyone has any information on the Kirby 36 and how they sail in
Lake Ontario in the GTA.
Thanks.
