Looking for a boat

Hi Top Hatters

I am Sydney based and in the market for a tidy top hat that does not need any major work done.

Looking for something to sail rather than a project boat

If anyone knows of a nice boat or one that is coming up soon please do let me know

Many thanks

John

Hi John

I have a Mk 2 that is in good condition. I am regretfully putting it up for sale soon as I work full time and have started at uni as a mature age student and no longer have the time. It has been a project boat for me and I’ve done a lot of work to it, the rigging has been done with the mast pulled out and re-sprayed just a few years ago, the sails push her along but if you are looking to race they could do with a upgrade. I have redone the entire electrical system. Cosmetically it’s in fair condition compared to most out there. I haven’t had a chance to write out an inventory yet but I will get it together the next trip out there (probably Sunday) This is my email and ph. If you want to respond I can send through some recent photos. jason_martin660@msn.com 0413818351
