Re: Cheap Multis and Projects

I think that 45' Horstman could be the reason I've made it 200+ pages in. Nada photos so far.

Re: Cheap Multis and Projects

12.8m cat for sale in the Netherlands:

https://m.boat24.com/uk/sailboats/ca...detail/436014/

Key info:
- .6m bridge deck clearance
- good size berths
- rigging’s been re-done recently
- has been used in the North Sea (which is a pretty **** place to sail frankly!)

I’m tempted to go have a look at it once lockdown lifts. Could be a good one for chopping the cabin top off and raising it’s height to make the boat more usable.

My only concern is it only weighs 2000kg... seems a bit light to me?

All good! I was just going to reply to you that it was definitely 60cm... which is acceptable on a 40ft boat. I guess my concern would be that the hulls are very narrow, so that’s a lot of gap between the hulls for potential slamming...

And another one:

Kelsal 450. Sadly I think this has sold (and I’m not surprised by that really) but would definitely make a cracking boat!

Re: Cheap Multis and Projects

I was a bit fast and had read 6m instead of ". 6m" or "0.6m" :-)

Re: Cheap Multis and Projects

That Horstman, named "manta' according to the ad (hence confusion over brand) looks like a reasonable buy at $70K

Re: Cheap Multis and Projects

Depends on condition of course, Jeff sounded like he wants more room.

Mantas were the pre Searunner Tri's by Jim Brown. He carried the logo over to the later range.
