Sailstar/bristol Corinthian
I just got back from a 1600 mile round trip to pick up my new to me Corinthian. I got a great deal on a solid little boat with an excellent full set of sails. Everything is solid and almost ready to sail. It only needs new bottom paint and some attention to the wooden rudder. I bought the little Alberg designed boat to sail while I recore the deck on my Bristol 24. I will also use it on camping/sailing trips because it is much easier to trailer than my corsair.

Re: Sailstar/bristol Corinthian
Nice! Smart to have something to sail while you're building. Keeps you from wondering why you're doing it. The Dragonfly is a low budget way for me to stay on the water until the oldest gets off the payroll and the youngest goes to college. We'll have more time to sail then and a little bigger budget. I have 7 years..... I just MAY start a boat building project to be done by then......
