Sail Number 29 Contact number on the sign says 0403003644, $2750 ono It is on a trailer but can't tell if it is registered. Has yellow beach wheels and sail box Your NACRA mates can check it out next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richard campbell Posted December 31, 2010 Report Share Posted December 31, 2010 Hi Chocko Tell your mate to check out boatsales .com.au, There is one there in Townsville, It doesn't look like a POS and close to Cairns, If it was closer i think it would trade up Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiser Posted December 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2010 Thanks Dee,, that one is in southern NSW, I looked into it when I bought my 14sq and the freight kills it. I will ring about no. 29 today thanks pointed reply. Thanks for the lead Richard, it looks like it's a nice boat, and photos of the bottoms of the hulls too, might be worth a drive to check it out. EDIT " I spoke with the coverted laser sailor and he is already on his way to Townsville to check out Nacra 14SQ 100, talk about keen......."

cruiser Posted January 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 Thanks Richard, the boat is purchased and on it's way to Cairns, will be at Tinaroo tomorrow!!! If I ever get organised enough to do the regatta down there, I'll bring some cane cutters cordial or you preferred beverage down for ya. Will take some video and pics tomorrow, watch this spot tomorrow night. We now have 6 nacras at Tinaroo, and only 2 of them are similar (2 x inter17) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
