Certainly outside of dinghies there's the Quant 23, a foiling keelboat scow... and some Mini Transat boats have been scows too....

Re: Can I ask advice on an old I14 mast...

Good question! I've seen some carbon fibre foils that might look nice on my 1970 Moth.... So wondering the same thing...

Re: Skol 2 parts and info sought...

I have the original (but broken) stainless steel rudder stock from the well known here Skol 'The Hopple' and also its original tiller with extension.

Thanks... should the end of the dagger board be shaped in any way, or square?

Re: rowing scull

I've got most of the bits you need, Rob... A Minisail hull with the aft tank cut out... waiting for extended side tanks and a higher, self draining floor... A nice flat floor would be perfect for mounting your seat to.... Plus a pair of ally moth wings, which you could hang your oars off... Come and...
