Re: Cheap Multis and Projects

We haven't seen the boat in close to 30 years. Judging from some of the photos in the ad, I doubt you would have found much encouragement inside either. It sure doesn't look like the intervening...

Re: Cheap Multis and Projects

Not all of the photos in the ad are of the boat that is for sale. The boat that is for sale is a Hortsman 42 that had flares added to the main hull in order to gain more accommodations. It was...

Re: Cheap Multis and Projects

Its current condition is rough. There never was much of an interior as it was built as a racer. I have heard about but not seen the damaged ama. Invictus is cold molded, so repairs would be time...

Re: Cheap Multis and Projects

Larry was always self-deprecating about his boat and his accomplishments. I haven't been aboard Invictus since its new paint job, but it was major but salvageable project last year. Given that it...

Re: Cheap Multis and Projects

Re: Cheap Multis and Projects

[QUOTE=senormechanico;1775581]I sent an email to my wife in jest:

We could get these boats FOR FREE !
I could fix them both up in my spare time.
I know they're kind of small, but you could sail...

Re: Cheap Multis and Projects

Larry Christianson designed, built, and raced Invictus. The hulls are cold molded probably with resorcinal (sp?) and clad with fiberglass probably with polyester. Epoxy didn't become popular here...

Re: Cheap Multis and Projects

Puffin was built by Bob and Marilyn Braggins. Nice boat. We had a great community of liveaboard multis in Lake Union during the 70s and 80s. Lots of people were building boats then. A fair number...

Re: Cheap Multis and Projects

I see the ad for Invictus is back up on Craigslist:

Sue and I decided to pass on Invictus, not because it lacks potential or has major problems, it's just a bigger project than we want to take on despite a strong sentimental attachment to her. As...

Re: Cheap Multis and Projects

Hi Willard,

We decided to pass on Invictus. It would be too expensive to upgrade/convert it to meet our purposes. Having said that:

1. The ad on Craigslist is misleading. There is no...

Re: Cheap Multis and Projects

Some of you may not know Invictus. It was at one time the fastest sailboat on the Northwest/Puget Sound. It's a Transpac veteran. The Northwest Multihull Association had a challenge trophy for the...
