SOLD! November 27, 2022: Vintage DN in IN

SOLD! Vintage DN. Built for the DN World Championship races back in the 1990’s, this boat is in great shape. It has Kenyon aluminum mast and boom, Harken hardware, SS stay wires, one set of runners and two sails that are in very good shape. There is no trailer and the boat cover is from another boat and is in poor shape. Great beginner boat or a boat just for cruising. The boat has been in inside storage since 2007.
Located in the Indianapolis area. May be willing to meet half way if I can find a way to transport.
$1,200.
