Hubris- hope you have a lot of money to sink into this boat. It did say 1960 right.
I know this boat and she has been well taken care of, shocked to see Stuart let her go...![]()
I have stared at Her from the dock. She is perfect. I love the open bulkhead boats, but She takes the cake!
I have also seen this boat many times and she is in PRISTINE condition. I can't believe the price, thought it would have been MUCH higher....
Didn't the owner move to the islands a couple years ago?
I also have seen it. Its a full 2 ft wider than a classic 36 rybovich too. Its totally redone, and belongs in a flat calm, short run environment if you ask me. I have read alot about the first 1950 to 1960 rybovichs made. They sure struggled with things such as drying the wood before building the boat, for instance. I would be real careful buying something built back before........lets be real......Anyone really knew very much about building saltwater boats. I know, alot of guys from back then are famous, but How much knowledge do you think they really had???????????Sort of ......Lets try this, as a built technique. I ccan only tell you how much home construction has developed. A home built in 1960 is nothing like a home built today, is it? Im not blasting the boat......I hope the owner doesnt think I am but I would rather live in Hawaii with its calm seas with a boat like that than North Carolina. Wouldnt You?
you might beat the planks off her running out of oregon inlet in a ne 10-15
I agree, these are great warm water boats. Still a classic
I have for you, two homes. One is built in 1960......the other is built in 2010. They dont call you Krazy 8 for nothing.![]()
This boat belongs to a friend of mine he spent alot of time and money on her she is as solid as solid is for 1960 he has taken her to the bahamas and florida she catches fish good and is economical. Lee he is living in St Thomas now decided to sell her instead of taking her with him.
