    I was trawling thru Boatshed and saw this.A low offer may give someone a great entry level coastal cruiser to play with junk rig.

    Good luck,

    David.

    A low offer did indeed secure her.  I am happy to say that I am the new owner of 'Mariposa'.  I'll write more on her in due course.

    Good one Peter!  I am sure you got a steal.

    I post these things and wonder if anybody notices them.

    I am sure a lot of things will need replacing but the concept is all there and if ever there was a hull that suited that rig, the Contessa is it.  You know she will go to windward.

    I am sure members will enjoy hearing your progress.

    Regards,

    David.

    Hi David. No worries, people do notice - it's just that they negotiate off screen, as advised. So keep posting - you're a valuable 'scout'!
