Snipe, 15'6", 1970 with trailer

Safe and Versatile for Everyone!

Beautiful lines, with its narrow, light, self-bailing cockpit that seats two or three, this boat is made to go fast!

I bought this boat when i lived in Mill Valley in 2000. i brought her up to LA in 2003 and sailed her a few times in Marina Del Rey and Castaic Lake. The boat is in good condition, having had limited use. The sails are in excellent condition and the and rigging is in good condition. The deck around the mast has some cracks and there is some cracking at the stern deck/transom joint, but it doesn't affect performance.

Galvanized trailer is included.

I would be happy to help you set up the boat for your first sail.

The boat is registered in California through December 31, 2013. Current registered hull number is CFZ597UE000.

    QUESTIONS:

  • How does it sail?
  • This boat is set-up for daysailing, with easy and fast rigging, but could easily be raced with some new hiking straps. It is very smooth, light and ready to race. Feel free to email with questions or to see more pictures. Snipe design allows for quick and easy stepping and unstepping the mast.
