Hi

I have been given a yacht which I think might be a Marblehead, I base that guess on being 50 inches long with a rig off deck measurement of 2150mm (excuse mixed units), looking at the invoice for the Futaba TX (Digital Proportional R/C System) dated 1979.

This yacht has never been sailed or registered and the hull is devoid of builders marks.

It has one rig but no M on the main

My challenge is to work the future for the yacht so any ideas as to design, what I should do with it (its not for me) and any good home suggestions would be appreciated.

Thank you

Michael

Hi Mike,

 

Interesting home made winch system with the screwed rod limit switches. Many of us used a variation of this in the early days.  

If the hull is flat sided & bottomed, it could be a Vic Smeed "Genie" designed in the early 1970's

 

Good luck with it.

Thank you Derek

Hi Mike

i think you are saying you want to pass it on to someone else. I do enjoy working on unusual boats as well as sailing them. If you are not too far away I would be interested. I am in Tring. 
cheers
