Up for sale is my 2017 Exploder. This boat was stripped and completely rebuilt from the skeleton up, with a lot of help from Bruce Mahoney (thanks, Bruce). The paint was stripped, hulls were faired, and it was professionally painted. The tramp was replaced with a Dyneema/Kevlar Mahoney tramp. All of the control lines were replaced with 3-4 mm Dinghy Control and modernized to be continuous around the back corners of the tramp. The mainsheet and blocks have been upgraded. Traveler car was replaced last year. All small control blocks replaced with Harken flywheels or Ronstan micros. Everything is spliced dyneema wherever possible. All cleats replaced with new Harken micro cleats. The siding is custom fit Raptor deck – super durable and basically guaranteed never to peel from the hull. The rudder locking mechanism was fortified to better support the rudders when they are up and lock securely when sailing. The exploder foiling boards have a small bit of wear on the trailing edges but are otherwise in great shape. The rudders are in excellent shape. Covers for the foils, custom stern chocks (I made these to be about 2x as thick as the stock chocks), and beach dolly included.
The trunks accepts either foiling boards or the exploder C-boards without any modifications. So this boat can be sailed as a classic or a foiler depending on the your preferences. I am including a like-new set of the Exploder C boards with the purchase. They are in perfect condition. Also included is a brand new set of Krantz dyneema standing rigging. I can also throw in a North Sails square top main and battens.
The boat is in great shape. IMO, it is a fast classic and a good entry-level foiler. I took a hiatus from the fleet for a few years and am looking to upgrade my platform as I get back into it. As you guys know, moving these boats is a jigsaw puzzle and I am anxious to find this boat a new home so I have room for a new one. So I am asking $6500 but would be willing to meet you somewhere lower if we can reach a deal before July.
This is a great boat, IMO I think it is a great value at this price point.
Can add Hall stiff mast and boom for $1000.
Boat is located in CT
