Mark, I am thinking about registering my Frances with phrf New England this season, hoping to participate in a couple of the local chase races. I am interested in the 250 rating that you sailed with in 2014. As I recall your boat is cutter rigged, what sails resulted in the 250 rating ? I have seen ...

I am interested in your 2014 re-power, I am considering a Beta 14 for my upcoming winter project. Any insight is appreciated.

I used the already molded in railing lip and mounted the new beams to the existing deck lip.

Coaster has been renamed AURORAL-coaster, complete enough to be in the water but still a work in progress.

Mark,
Yes, this is the Haddam boat. Thanks again for the lead.

Eric

The interior is also pretty rough.

Coaster just landed in my backyard, a 1977 Morris in need of a serious 'cosmetic' rehabilitation.

Eric

Dennis,
Do I recall correctly that this boat is a cabin model ?
Eric

Mark,
Thank you, I'll pursue it next week

Mark, I am in the Boston area , I think that it is unlikely that I would be satisfied with a trunk cabin, however,you mentioned one located in CT, on the hard for a number of years with no activity by the owner. That has me curious.

Eric

Mark,
Thanks for your reply, By project boat I mean needing lots of work and priced accordingly, Structurally sound. 'I cant afford Stormy' and am looking for a good project and eventual good boat. I neglected to include in my initial post I am interested in a flush deck.

Eric

I am looking for a Project boat Frances 26 or Carol 24 preferably in the New England area. Advice and leads are appreciated.
