Hello, my name is Dennis and I would like to know if there are any Core Sounds, 17 or 20's in the San Francisco Bay Area?

thanks ... Dennis

Hi Dennis ~ I asked this same question about Belhaven builders when I started my build in September. No bites. I am in Nevada near Lake Tahoe. Hope you find someone local.

Good Luck Dennis, there doesn't seem to be many Coresound boats out west for some reason. I've had a CS17 in Seattle for about two years but have never even seen another one.

Thank You Kyle, I love Tahoe, my wife and I go up a couple of times each year. I was interested in a very light capable boat that could be towed up to Tahoe from the Bay Area behind a small vehicle just because we love the Tahoe Basin area so much and the CS 17/20 seemed ideal for that kind of mission.

But we would normally be sailing in the SF Bay and Sacramento Delta areas and having a very sea worthy boat was another consideration for sailing in the Bay. It would have been nice to have CS during the last few months just to go whale sightseeing on nice days.

I am also considering the Belhaven because it does provide a little privacy and it is relatively lightweight too, so considering the dual mission of towing something up to Tahoe a couple of times a year and sailing the SF Bay may make the Belhaven a better choice.

Thanks for the reply Kyle, looking forward to hearing more about your Belhaven ... Dennis

Thanks Randy, my experience so far too. My son lives up in Oregon, just a few miles south of the Washington border and I have seen at least one CS 20 while traveling around that part of the state.

Makes you wonder why there aren't a few of these boats sailing the SF Bay, seems like the CS 17/20 would be almost ideal for exploring the Bay and even outside the Gate during nice weather.

Thanks for the reply Randy ... Dennis
