Pete, if one was to put a jib on this P15, what would you recommend?

Why not just buy a Prindle 16, nothing to cut down and nothing to add, and the boat is designed and balanced as a sloop rig for a crew of 2. The P-15 was designed and built to be sailed as a one man boat.

The add says, "offers", I bet it could be picked up for next to nothing, if i was closer I'd do it.
Is that the sail wrapped around the mast & left in the sun? Might be pooched.

l.r.hoppe,

I have a P15 located in south Mississippi. It needs a trampoline. I've sailed her about a dozen times. I recently purchased a P16, so she is just collecting sand.

Feel free to send a PM if you care to contact me.

Here she is:

Happy sailing

l.r.hoppe - Are you out there? Here's a P15 that could be for sale if the price was agreeable to both parties. See above photo of said boat. Thanks!
