Still Looking--Flying Scott in Boise--Saturday, August 24, 2013 -- Check Craigslist everyday for Seattle, Portland, Tri-Cities and Spokane. There are a couple of possibles. There is a Tanzer up in Port Angeles--the price seems right, $1600--only two sails. The trailer needs work, but is road worthy.
There is a Flying Scot in Boise. The price is really right--$5500 for what he is selling. This boat has two mains, two jibs, two spinnakers, pole, compass--trailer isn't bad--galvanized. The owner is still racing it. This an interesting class boat. Last year FS #1 won a regatta. This particular boat is a '78.
Fifty-five hundred is more than I want to have tied up in a boat that I'm only going to sail 10 or 12 times a year. It's a long drive to Boise (10 hours each way). New Scots go for $19,000--I didn't stutter, that's three zeros.
Thinking about it. It's a good buy. More than I want to spend, but it would be fun to go head to head with Semper Fi.
