Classic Pond Yachts
Gaff rigged toy Yacht from EBAY
My son bought this on EBAY for £12 for his son, now nearly 3 !! start them young. I have been chasing for these pictures for a while, sadly no pictures of my 3 year old grandson sanding the hull, he was on it for over an hour in his garage, good lad !!
Nice looking boat, has a broken mast in the mast step to be drilled out
Interesting boat, has fittings for a bowsprit so we have assumed it had a gaff rig ? she has a weighted rudder, no tiller etc. but a very pretty shape. When was the last model built with as weighted rudder ??
Hull sanded down and painted, mast step drilled out, new mast, bowsprit, booms and gaff made.
Great little boat, now needs to go sailing, pictures to follow, and make a stand. I wonder who made it, the hull seems to be a sort of GRP ?
