[quote=SC19][quote=waterman623][quote=SC19][quote=waterman623][quote=SC19]Great to see another SC getting back on the water. Tom and crew are great.
Any idea what year the 19 is?[/quote]
The hulls are numbered 19P26 and 19S82 I think its a project boat. Is there a data plate somewhere I may have missed? I have all the rigging, nothing I can find missing. Dagger boards and rudders are good. The PO took good care of it while it was with him, but there are a lot of little things. The hulls have had repairs but they are of varied quality. This is why I listened to Scotts advice. Once I get into a project I don't stop until its perfect and once I sanded the hulls it may take significantly more time than I anticipated. I am fast but not that fast.
Its nice to meet another SC owner/fan. I can't wait to get this out on the water. Any knowledge you can impart would be much appreciated. I have the manual and the parts sheet but other than that nothing to go off other than just a couple youtube videos.[/quote]
1982 with those hull numbers seems about right. The first two digits are the hull length, second is port or starboard (which is silly since they are the same) and the last number is the count from the mold. Sail it when you can and make pretty when you can't. If you have any questions shoot them over, my uncle worked at Supercat before Bill sold the company and I can ask him.[/quote]
Any structural issues to watch for. I don't even know if this is a structure core boat. It doesn't sound like it is. But I am sure your uncle could fill a boat with knowledge about this boat. Would love to talk if he has time.[/quote]
It's a foam sandwich hull. Look for issues around the bow tangs, beam mounts and rudder mounts on the transoms. If those are good you should be solid. One of my 17s does have several big soft spots on the port hull but I'm convinced that was either from a tree or a really heavy crew on the trap.[/quote]
