This one is old. It came out of Canada and I understand that they were make there for a while. The mast is steped on top of the deck but the hull looks very simular except that there is a lot more flair to the bow and very flat at the stern. Sure with I knew what it is. Paid $400 with the trailer but no sail rig. Found a rig at a local boat yard for $100. The sail is a little large for the boat but I think it will work out. The mast was 20' long and I cut off 18". Boy am I going to have some fun now!!!! Maby I should think about a little more life insurance!
