SOLD! January 20, 2021: Arrow in MI

by | Jan 23, 2021 | Sold

SOLD! Arrow #182 w/open trailer
Originally bought as a parts donor, but my heart wouldn’t let me scrap her, so the hull’s been recently rehabilitated and is ready to sail.
Won’t win a beauty pageant, but would make a great second boat for giving 1st timers a thrill, or building beginners confidence for solo skippering.
Original spars, sail, and plank, with freshly sharpened runners.
Currently rigged and can be sailed from my yard if weather permits.
Located in Columbiaville, MI
$1200 OBO
