cs Posted November 3, 2003 Posted November 3, 2003 Hey Ken I hear that you live in Rhoade Island. Is this true? If so look at this post for me and see if you can help. This is mostly for Chad: In the most recent MAIB there is an article that mentions a 22' Passamaquoddy Friendship sloop Friendship Sloop Society #215) for sale. The original ad ran quite some time ago, but it is apparently still for sale. Asking price was less than $6K. It would sure as heck be faster and cheaper than building...Does anyone on the list know anything about this boat? Ellen Anne launched 1968. built by Passamaquoddy Yachts. For sale by owner. The number is available at http://fss.org/forsale.htm From the Friendship site: 215 ELLEN ANNE RI 22' Passamaquoddy Yachts 1968 Owner 410-725-5640 I don't know how close this is to you or if you could get some photos, but any help would be appreciated. Thanks Chad Quote

Chris Gerkin Posted November 4, 2003 Posted November 4, 2003 There was a free 16 foot Friendship in the back of Wooden Boat this month. The contact numbers are 727-524-6857 and 727-420-5079. The boat is wooden and need restoration, it is in Florida. Quote
Barnacle Jim Posted November 4, 2003 Posted November 4, 2003 Hi Chris, A 16-foot Friendship Sloop? Is that a typo? Most likely not, but I never realized that any version of the Friendship Sloop was less than 24 or 20 feet. Quote
cs Posted November 4, 2003 Author Posted November 4, 2003 I contacted them last week about that one. It is a flat bottomed full keel with a swing keel boat. It has a small cabin that when you lay in it your feet protuded into the cockpit. Sounded like an early weekender and I'm already building one of those. Chad Quote
Tim Diebert Posted November 4, 2003 Posted November 4, 2003 Seems to me some folks were discussing this free 'Friendship' on the WB forum and it turns out it was a Weekender. Quote
cs Posted November 4, 2003 Author Posted November 4, 2003 Yeah Tim that was me over at WB that started that post. When I talked to the guy on the phone he didn't come out and say it was a weekender, but the description sure did fit. Chad Quote
Barry Pyeatt Posted November 4, 2003 Posted November 4, 2003 There are a number of 19' Friendships listed in the registry. Only one 16' {and it is really a Weekender) :wink: that was admitted before they really knew what it was. :roll: Quote
