Description: |
This is a great opportunity to get into an Etchells for small money, the trailer by itself would sell for $1,500.This boat is currently disassembled for a restoration that I just don't have time for, but it's complete for basic sailing including a main, jib and spinnaker. You could put it back together, as is, and be sailing or you can complete the restoration (including replacing the floorboards, which are missing) and have a competitive race boat. There are active and supportive Etchells fleets in both Marblehead, MA and Portland, ME and I will deliver within a reasonable distance.
Fast, sleek and stable: An Etchells is a powerful, 30.5′ keelboat that bites into big breeze and digests it gracefully. The long lines and narrow beam of an Etchells make her visually stunning as she moves across both flat waters and ocean chop. And with a 22′ waterline and relatively little wetted surface area, the Etchells is also able to get good boat speed in light-air conditions. The boat is very sensitive to fine adjustments in the rig and sail trim, which makes it technically intriguing to all types of sailors. |
