wanted info/parts Glas-tech Jigger dinghy sailboat

[jheldatksuedu]

I have a 9'6 Glas-tech jigger and need some stuff for it. I'm in south west Florida, but travel quite a lot.

for info My boat it is Glas-tech Mfg. hull # 131 class jigger
9 ft 6 in long, 50 in beam, slotted mast 16 ft 4 in with 3/16 slot and wide sail insertion point in slot at 48 inches, mast 16 inches back from bow. So I suspect leading edge of sail is around 12 ft something. 13 in dagger board slot with slight rake aft.

Basically I have the mast and hull, but have jury rigged everything else to make it sort of complete and sail. I made the hull be 2 pieces so it'll fit better on deck in a storm. I normally just use it as a rowing dinghy since my sailing rig is a mess and I don't have a good dagger board. Anybody with info, dimensions, parts for my boat I would surely welcome. I can build anything but would like dimensions instead of guessing.

The company is out of business but was in eastern Connecticut
GLAS-TECH MFG RT 85, AMSTON CT
Amston is north of Colchester on 85, 1/2 way to Hebron

Hey jheldatksuedu,

I have the same Glass Tech Jigger. Mine is still in 1 piece though. It's tough to find any information about them, mine is Hull # 141 I think. It's interesting that the only reference I've come across on these dinghies is the one you found as garden art.

Find out anything since?

How is the nesting dinghy working out for you?
