Dig Posted September 11, 2011 Report Share Posted September 11, 2011 All Still procrastinating about which model to build (and wondering where I might actually build a boat without space or shed). Are there any builders or owners of either CS17 or CS15 in Sydney or nearby? DIG PS I also like the look, although its a very different vessel, of John Welsford's S.C.A.M.P. designed for Small Craft Advisor. What does anyone else think?

Ken_Potts Posted September 11, 2011 Report Share Posted September 11, 2011 Hi DIG, I'm a CS17 builder who lives in Canberra. Unfortunately, my boat didn't follow me down here from North Carolina, but you asked about builders or owners... I know there's a gentleman somewhere to the South of here who's got a Core Sound. Hopefully he'll say hello, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dig Posted September 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 Ken, thanks for the reply. Do you still own a CS? Is it back in NC? Maybe I should broaden my search criteria to East Coast. I know that there are a couple of CS in QLD and probably others around as well. I just wanted to talk to a few skipper / owners face to face and maybe see a boat or two in 'the flesh' if possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter HK Posted September 13, 2011 Report Share Posted September 13, 2011 Hi Dig I'm in Brisbane with a CS17 if you are planning a trip. Cheers Peter HK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dig Posted September 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2011 Peter HK, I have family in Bris Vegas so when next I am coming up I might contact you if that's OK? shall I send you an PM email off forum? There's also Dee Cee with the CS 15 RED NECK. Maybe hear form him too. Cheers DIG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter HK Posted September 13, 2011 Report Share Posted September 13, 2011 Hi Dig I agree it's best to PM me when you have a plan. I haven't met Dee Cee or seen his boat as yet but he's in the Wooden Boat Association of Queensland, and as my brother is editor of the newsletter I could probably get some contact details if he doesn't see this on the forum.

DeeeCeee Posted September 14, 2011 Report Share Posted September 14, 2011 Hi Dig, Yep if ever you're up Brisbane way come and have a sqizz at the CS15. I'll send a PM.... Cheers Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davo Posted September 26, 2011 Report Share Posted September 26, 2011 Gday Digg - I have a 17 that I rebuild and have been sailing for a number of years - lakes, harbours (including Sydney and Jervis bay), blue water when I feel brave enough - very capable boat. I'm in Cobargo, way down on the south coast. I'll let you know if I am coming north anytime with the boat - or come for a drive down south and we can go for a sail. Happy to give any advice from my experiences cheers Davo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Batchelor Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Hi Dig, I have a CS17 in Melbourne, if you ever make it down this way... Always happy to talk about my boat Cheers, Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
