Description

Used Montgomery 7'11" row/sail dinghy. This boat has the classic Montgomery lapstrake appearance but is fiberglass (white exterior, gray interior). I bought the sailboat with a white Sabot sail, but I have replaced the sail with a new cream colored sail with the "M" logo. The last pictures in the series show the Sabot sail. The boat uses a leeboard (see picts) and comes with a set of oars (only used for part of one season). Uses for this dinghy include use as a yacht tender, an attractive cottage boat, a simple sailing trainer. This is not a boat for large folks or more than two individuals. This is not a boat for competitive or all-weather sailing. The boat does not come with a trailer, but, at <8' in length, I find it fits in my pickup bed. Successful bidder must pick up the boat.
The good points:
  • Sound hull (no leaks) and in generally good shape
  • New sail and battens (never been on the water yet)
  • Rudder and leeboard in really good shape (nice varnish, only minor chips)
  • Oars are nearly new (only been used for a few outings)
  • Generally attractive features.
The imperfections:
  • Outer hull has some rough patches, prior ding repairs, and small cosmetic drips or spider cracks
  • A functional repair was made to the support for the leeboard (on the seat) but the wood does not match that on the seats.
  • The oars are a bit long for my comfort and could be trimmed back.
