| Post subject: | parting out my H18 |
Well, i haven't had much luck trying to sell my beloved as a whole package, so i will resort to parting here out. I will put a full list of parts and prices here first, so that you guys will get first dibs on any of her parts. A week later, ALL of the shippable items will be going on ebay. I'm keeping the wings. sorry Hulls, trailer, cat box, tramp, updated rudder castings, all of it must go! Here is one of my ads for the whole boat. call me if anybody has any questions. 530.941.3511 or wesmx916 at hotmail dot com Wes http://www.thebeachcats.com/classifieds ... oduct/1552 |

Wes, Don't ya think you are getting a little itchy on the trigger finger ? it IS still february, Your boat will sell much better once the weather starts to warm up. One should not expect to get top dollar on a sno blower in July !!!! I just yesterday, saw a H-18 mainsail in pristine condition go for only $200 on E-bay. Last summer I was easily getting 500 for sails in not quite as good condition. I don't even start advertising any of my spare parts until the end of April. Stephen |

Unless you really need the money sooner, are ya sure ya don't want to hang on to it until November and come sail it at the Havamega Event at Havasu ??? Take it down there with a For Sale sign on it and get top dollar and drive home with a empty hitch. Now There's an idea that ROCKS !!!

Wes why not just spin out the 18? You have the all alum mast that would be perfect. |

Cool deal Wes. You need a parts list to spin out the 20? I can get the info from Mark if you need to set up the mount points, pole length, spin cut ect. Just yell if you need help. |

Yes, I will need a parts list. Not sure exactly how soon I'll be able to set it up(i don't even have the boat yet). But, you can bet that, a spin set-up will be one of the very first things I do to it. Hook me up Rich! Thank you, Sir. Wes |

I'll probably wreck Jeremy's sale, but wouldn't a Hobie 21 be a better fit since it already has wings and the gennaker is optional? Good luck finding one, though. http://www.hobiecat.com/sailing/models_21sc.html |

Yes probably, but i like the idea of the Miracle from the performance standpoint...PLUS...I want to be one of the FEW...the PROUD...the Miracle Magnum owners! To me, the idea of a H20 with wings, all spun out, with a self tacking jib and square top, just sounds RAD, but that's just me. Take a boat that is typically more or less a handful, and and some convenience to it (drink holders and bench seats baby!). |
