I am about 1/2 hour from Lancaster if any one is interested. Send me a PM.

Has this boat been sold?

[James McMullen]

That would be the Oughtred John Dory, right? Someone gots themselves a nifty little sail n' oar boat for a steal.

[Evulgenious]

Yes, that would be the one. I am sad.

[Brian Palmer]

It looks like it is still available. Here is a newer listing from 4/27.

By the way, this is not my boat. I am always just checking out what is out there.

Cheers,

Brian

Oh, okay. I thought it was yours. This is the very ad I tried to respond to several times. including the very day it started, but haven't gotten any answer. They left no means of getting in touch aside from responding to the Craigslist email. Very frustrating.

I never leave anything other than the coded email link. I get crazies almost every time I post something for sale now. Not worth putting out any personal info. Maybe they misspelled their email address when they plugged it in to be coded, and that's why it's listed again?

[Evulgenious]

All thats on there is the coded link. And yes, I know what you mean about 'the crazies'. Maybe they will list it again...

It's a well put together ad, so the seller is obviously motivated to sell her. Try again with the new posting.

Well a 17' foot Swampscott just came up in southern MD. http://washingtondc.craigslist.org/m...012889280.html

[Evulgenious]

WOW! Thank you!

[Evulgenious]

As it happens, this gentleman finally contacted me. It seems all his Craigslist email was going into his spam file. I am now the very happy owner of this boat.

Lets see a picture, all of them had expired by the time I found the thread..

[Evulgenious]

Unfortunately, I had just enough time to take her out rowing once and then had to return to work overseas. I will post pics when I get back in August. Now I need to find somebody who would share the sail plans with me, as I would like to change it from its current gaff rig to a sloop rig to simply make it easier and quicker to set up.

Congrats and the boat!

[Brian Palmer]

So which one did you finally get: the Lancaster PA or the Washington DC boat?

Cheers,

Brian

[Evulgenious]

I go the one from Lancaster. The other one was a very sharp boat, but the Lancaster Dory was simply easier on the budget. I do thank everyone here for all their help, and I plan on staying in this forum for ideas and growth.
