In this Weather ? I wish the mast would fit in the garage .

Would it be OK to use a pressure washer on wooden mast to clear off all the muck . If so , Would it be better on low power ?
Good idea about the dowel , Thanks .

Just looked at your photos, and I think the "stuck in mud" was an old fishing boat I had called "Lucky choice" about 19-20ft with single cylinder diesel and pot hauler. Lovely dep lines and sea kindly hull, slow but sure. Did you notice the name? Naa , Too much mud for that . My...

The Luff groove on my wooden mast is full of debris and old varnish . Most of it will probably come out with a stiff pipe brush . Any suggestions to remove the old varnish and remaining debris . The Honeysuckle came out with a bit of a battle

GarryR . The luff groove is full of general debris plus old varnish , One piece of Honeysuckle made its home in it . The main stuff I could probably get out with a stiff pipe brush . Seeing as we have identified the boat , I will start a new thread in a more suitable location later .

Judging by the lack of colour Pics , It looks a bit Swallows and Amazons only home built .

Someone else contacted me and said it was a Tarpon 14 . The plans are available on Clarkcraft.com . It's supposed to be gunter rigged and can be completed as a fishing , rowing or sailing boat . NOT recommended for racing ( Too slow ) . If anyone knows different , Please let me know , I was'nt going...

"If you brought this boat believing it to be a Wayfarer ask for your money back. " At the price I paid for this . Its not worth taking back . I can always convert to an open fishing boat and get my money back selling the sails and extras .
14 Ft. LOA . Beam 5 Ft .

This is the Wayfarer that I have just acquired . There is no Hull No. So probably a home Build . http://www.panoramio.com/photo/33613231 Looks different to other Wayfarer cockpits http://www.panoramio.com/photo/33613231 I have a wooden mast that needs the Luff Groove cleaned out . Any suggestions . ...

Nigel , She is a wooden , Triple Chined Hull . I'm Busy this weekend but I will get some pics on the boat I.D. forum ASAP . Where should I look for a hull No.?
Paul

Chris . I am not a member of Corus sailing club . I'll get the wayfarer up to scratch before I think of doing anything with her . It may not even be a wayfarer as the hull seems right but there is no rear deck and it came with Pegasus sails ( No. 72 ) and a wooden mast . As soon as the rain clears u...

Hello as you can see my name is Paul . I presently have two boats , A Hurley Alacrity and a Mk 1 Wayfarer with no rear deck which I shall be asking the experts ( You lot ) about shortly . Based in Port Talbot , South Wales .
