I'm selling my 2008 Core Sound 20-MK1. I bought this used from Doug Cameron 2 seasons ago and after sailing for 2 seasons I/we have determined it is not the right boat for the family at this time. Although very fast and capable boat, it is a little too lively for the family. Currently the boat only has its main mast and sail for I was dismasted two weeks ago due to a corrosion in the base of the mizzen mast. You can read about in this in the B&B forum, just search for CS20 Dismasted. Oddly enough, the dismasting had no bearing on the decision to sell. The main mast has no corrosion for I was constructed slightly differently. I am currently sourcing out the needed materials for a new mast and will ether sell as is or build a mast over the winter. Asking price is $6,500 or BRO. The boat is located in Portland, Maine.
Now about the boat:
