DavidL Posted September 16, 2014 Posted September 16, 2014 Found a Princess 22 on Craig's List for sale. Maybe worth buying, instead of building one. I'm still going to build my Princess 26. http://outerbanks.craigslist.org/boa/4653925756.html Quote
Chick Ludwig Posted September 16, 2014 Posted September 16, 2014 That is hull No. 1 that I built. $5500 is a really good price. 1 Quote
Howard Posted September 16, 2014 Posted September 16, 2014 That is the boat that inspired me to want to build a Princess, except like David, I opted to build the larger Princess 26. The decision to go with the Princess was confirmed once I got a chance to ride around on one. That would be a good deal. Plywood and epoxy alone for the Princess 26 would cost that much. Quote
Travis Votaw Posted September 17, 2014 Posted September 17, 2014 That is a very good price. Materials alone will cost you much more than that. Quote
Lynn Watson Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 Chick, could you estimate the trailer weight for the P22? I wonder about pulling this boat catercorner across the country with a Toyota pickup... On a related note, I went for a delightful ride in Randy's new Belhaven on Lake Washington last weekend. That's a nice boat! Surprisingly stable for being so light - stepping on the rail only sank it about 3". Props for form stability. Seemed a bit underrigged for light air, though. I'm hoping for about 18 kts at the Fort Worden messabout in October; then we'll see what's what! cheers, Lynn Quote
Chick Ludwig Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 Lynn, sorry, but I don't have the weight. I sold the Princess several years ago. I would think the Toyota would do fine. Graham will know the dry weight. Quote
