[quote=klozhald][quote=pknapp66 ]Does the 18-2 have battens in the jib? Found a 1986 18-2 that has been in storage since 1990. Really
interested in it but the jib is missing. Supposed to be near mint condition.

There are two small battens sewn into the leech of the jib, six to eight inches long, about a third of the way up and down.
[quote=MN3]aren't there both a skeg and dagger version ?[/quote]
??? Centerboards swung forward on a pivot on both the 18-2 and the 19. There was an optional set of rudders that were longer and rounded for the 19MX, which had a big flat top mylar mainsail and a much longer (and lower) jib that required a bowsprit. These rounded rudders required extended gudgeons, and an extended pipe from the rudder castings that brought the rudder crossbar forward to the rear crossbar.
There is more Prindle 18-2 and 19 information here:
