Now electronics needed looking for a Seawind, Victoria or a Cr-914 (Fingers crossed). I'm sailing a Fortune 612 and would like something bigger.
Thanks in advance

I have a kit from Dumas. It is the Bingo. This is a 50/800 or Marblehead class boat.

That may be too big for my area, thanks.

Would you be interested in an INTERNATIONAL ONE METER or a US ONE METER?

IOM is my goal. Here's what i've been looking at.
Northwind 36"
Blawkhawk 32"
Seawind (really leaning this way)
tamiya round the world (super expensive!!)
and
A longbow.
But really if someone has something on a shelf, i'm interested.

I designed and built a IOM hoping to get a class started down here but was unsuccessful in deveoping interest. Our club sails US One Meters. It is molded fiberglass with mylar sails and is registered with the IOM class. I took it out west once and sailed it with a group of about 15 other IOM. Most of them were the high priced imported hulls. My boat appeared to be quite competitive with them, I came in about the middle of the pack. Since I don't have anyone to compete with here I have decided to let it go. I would sell it for $400 complete with sails and servos. Hook up your receiver and battery with your transmitter and you are ready to sail. The included sail is an A rig. I also have a B rig availabe which includes sails, mast and boom for an additional $100. I don't know how to attach a picture with this system but if you would send me your e-mail addres I'll get pictures off to you.
By the way if you are prone to building I also have a kit made up from the same mold for $180 which includes:
the hull complete with keel and mast support installed.
molded fiberglass deck,
vacuum bagged fiberglass/ carbon fiber keel,
fiberglass rudder,
construction plans.
