Title: Wanted Late Bayraider 20 with "USA" Rig or Storm 23
Post by: Peter Cockerton on 05 Apr 2019, 15:46
I'm looking for a late BR20 with the single piece CF mast and fat head main sail that was designed for "as i understand it" for the USA market.

Would also like to consider a Storm 23 but as only one was made i guess unlikely to find one.

Please send me a pm or email me at petercsailing at virginmedia.com

As I expected I have no replies to my "Late BR20 with USA Rig or Storm 23" posting so I’m in the process of a new purchase from SY. I have placed this posting under the general heading now.

Peter,

I have this afternoon received from Laura at Swallow, a brokers sheet for a BR that would seem to be what you are after?

For Sale
BayRaider 20 No. 95 (2014)
Options include
Unbraked trailer, Spray hood (unused)
Coppercoat antifouling, Oars
Mainsail cover, Winter cover
4 hp Yamaha outboard (light use)
“USA” rig option (fully battened ketch with carbon mast)
Price: £13,750
For enquiries please contact Swallow Yachts on 01239 615482 or admin@swallowyachts.com

I will collect my "finders fee" when we eventually meet, should you buy. Suspect I am cheaper than a broker?  ;)

Note: This boat has nothing what-so-ever to do with me; just passing on the ad....

Just a little late in the day I’m afraid, new BR20 now on order and hopefully ready to pick up mid August.

One piece CF mast
CF boom
Bowsprit
Larger jib set on bowsprit
AeroLuff jib spar (furl and reef the jib)
Main sail stack pack and lazy jacks.

Looking forward to picking her up and getting on the water.

Thanks

Peter

Peter,

I will have to rethink my new career in boat sales then?
Sorry!

Hoping to hear more of your ground-breaking new setup, particularly the carbon boom, sprit and larger jib.
Some photos would be even better!
Exciting stuff!

Does your larger jib reefing/furling setup require significant changes to the sheeting arrangements?
