Can you tell me more about the design? I know you said it is a kelsall 34, but I can't find anything that looks similar with a google search.

That boat is so patched and kludged it doesn't even resemble the original. Anyway, it's a fire-sale and price is lower at $1500 on another site. Pretty soon, it will be offered for haul-away expense.

Hi Tom, that’s funny. The reason I was fire selling her was that I didn’t have time to fix her myself, but I’m back from my third attempt at R2AK now and plan on doing just that fixing her myself, in about a week or two I’ll get started. MN3, I thought adds are free on here? Zipper1211, Kelsall, the builder is still building boats and teaching his revolutionary techniques in Australia. I contacted him about this boat he built. He knew her as “source of liteweight”. You can find some of her Histort if you google that and Kelsall together. He said that she was a one off but the molds used for the hulls were used for many other boats he built. They’re perfectly round with a radius of maybe 18 inches only. Come by and take a look, maybe help me fix her.
