David Hughes Posted September 15, 2015 Posted September 15, 2015 I'm selling my 2008 Core Sound 20-MK1. I bought this used from Doug Cameron 2 seasons ago and after sailing for 2 seasons I/we have determined it is not the right boat for the family at this time. Although very fast and capable boat, it is a little too lively for the family. Currently the boat only has its main mast and sail for I was dismasted two weeks ago due to a corrosion in the base of the mizzen mast. You can read about in this in the B&B forum, just search for CS20 Dismasted. Oddly enough, the dismasting had no bearing on the decision to sell. The main mast has no corrosion for I was constructed slightly differently. I am currently sourcing out the needed materials for a new mast and will ether sell as is or build a mast over the winter. Asking price is $6,500 or BRO. The boat is located in Portland, Maine. Now about the boat: Again, this is Doug Cameron's Core Sound MK1 that he built and sailed several times in the Everglades Challenge. Hull No. 85. Doug replaced the boat with the MK-3 version. Boat Statistics: 20 foot planning cat ketch sprit rigged centerboard sail boat, MK-1 version 8" draft with board up, 3' 9" with board down 6' 3" beam approximately 550 lbs displacement Includes Full Batten mainsail with extra high roach,extra stiff battens, 2 reefs, and slides Mizzen staysail @ 155 sq ft of sail area Shawn and Tenney 10" oars Canvas Dodger Custom galvanized trailer with 14-inch wheels,barring buddies, tongue jack, and spare Honda 2hp 4-stroke long shaft outboard Reinforced transom for the motor Doug actually posted a video tour of the boat on you tube : www.youtube.com/watch?v=H_77Cx0P1E You can either PM me here or call me at 207-553-0039.

David Hughes Posted September 16, 2015 Author Posted September 16, 2015 The link doesn't work. If you search you tube for "Core Sound 20 Doug Cameron" you'll find the video. I'll post some current pictures shortly. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
David Hughes Posted November 23, 2015 Author Posted November 23, 2015 Well I'm happy to say the boat has been sold to Bill Clark of Vermont. I understand the boat will spend summers up in Cape Bretton Canada. I'm so glad to find a good home for the boat. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
