wend Posted November 23, 2020 Report Share Posted November 23, 2020 There are a couple of CS17s mark 1s out there for sale. Would it be possible to buy one and later upgrade it to a mark 3? I'd be willing to pay extra for the kit adjustment. Is this a terrible idea that's not going to save much time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Rendelman hull 24 Posted November 24, 2020 Report Share Posted November 24, 2020 Hello! that sounds like a question for Alan Stewart or graham, and welcome to the community mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chick Ludwig Posted November 24, 2020 Report Share Posted November 24, 2020 The hulls are different enough that kit parts won't fit, but you certainly could do your own conversion to add a cabin. I did something like that to build Old Codger from a Jessy Skiff. It's not a sail boat, but the same ideas apply as for as the cabin goes. Maybe you can get some ideas from my build on the cabin. You could also get a set of plans for the Mk-3 to guide you, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Designer Posted November 24, 2020 Report Share Posted November 24, 2020 Chick is correct, the mk3 is a different boat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Silsbe Posted November 26, 2020 Report Share Posted November 26, 2020 For one thing, the freeboard is higher on the mk3, which means the sheer line is totally different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
