Re: Stus-List US Watercraft receivership
I was hoping they'd make it. Now that we have a motel at the lake, a racing sled would be fun; used of course. My budget can't take new.For the "no effort" crowd, maybe back to self tacking jibs and lazy jacks. My wife is complaining about the 160% genny which I need in anything under 10kts.

Re: Stus-List US Watercraft receivership
It is also aging population The great thing about sailing vs powerboating is that everyone on board is involved in sailing whereas powerboat is like sitting on the beach. Boring (if you are not the driver). Sailing can be a lot of work and racing needs an active crew. Powerboat you are less dependent on other people to take your boat out for the day. My last boat will hopefully be something like a Mainship. It will be flag blue. Sabre also made that realization. Even the major sailboat manufacturers are making sailboats that have more and more the attributes of powerboats ….

Re: Stus-List US Watercraft receivership
So this is the company that owns the C&C name and builds the new C&C 30 one-design racing sled with open transom and bulb keel? Going into receivership? Sad.

Re: Stus-List US Watercraft receivership
The new sailboat market in the US is a mess. It just hasn't shaken off the effects of 2008 when sales of domestic sailboats dropped by 75%. Sad to see yet another builder struggling. On the plus side, Hall Spars has reopened in the states with the financial backing of the North Sails group. Yet another reason to keep our old boats running in good shape.
