I believe it's a 67 model. At least this is what the previous owner though it was. But now that I own it, I plan to repaint it and for now, use it down here in the Houston area. I'm looking for the cheapest/easiest way to paint it. So where do you guys reccommend I buy the paint? I don't have a lot of money right now, so I may use it as is for now and paint it when I get the money. But I really want to make it look better and protect it so I can use it for awhile.
When I picked up the boat, the gelcoat rubs off on my hands like chalk. The sails are in decent shape, but one needs patched, so I may pick up some sail patching tape for now. I only bought it all for $150, so right now I don't want to invest a lot of money into it, I just want to use it as a recreational hobby.
I also need to find a bailer plug, as it's is missing the plug and the previous owner just filled the bailer with silicone.
I am open to suggestions, but like I said, I'm broke and would like to do it right, but as inexpensive as possible.
This is what I bought:
Hull
Aluminum Rudder with tiller
Two centerboards
mast
two sails along with the frames.
Trailer.
Here are the pics i have of it.
Here you can see where it's been patched.
The Sails
I also have to remount the plastic piece in front of the cockpit.
