I personally can't wait to mark my Prindle 18 as sold! 😀 Nothing but nibbles yet.

Nick, It will sound like I am biased because it is my boat, but you REALLY need to look at the Prindle 18 I have for sale. I a min stafford, about ...

There are no tabs for the side lacing, so it is not for a stock Prindle 18.

Mine is 26" from the end of the mast and is screwed to a plate that was slide into the track of the boom. Thanks for the post - I never noticed I was...

The picture shows a G-Cat 5.7 with a Prindle Sail. I helmed that boat that day and was a fine ride - never drove it with a G-Cat sail. Havlii, I a...

It is a stunning image given the distance, the speed we were traveling, the long lens and a steady hand. Dawn says thanks for the compliments. I do...

Havlii can fill you in on that better as he is the skipper, but the crew was on his first sailboat ride ever, and from what i heard, he had already de...

I think you're right - there is little possibility of your mainsheet falling through that tramp. You do run a strong possibility of having your crew...

No baseball hats, but my standard RnBCYC headgear is a camo boonie hat. Don't tell the commodore, but about half the RnBCYC originally hail from nor...

The straight shackle was a no go - the pigtail gives zero resistance. Sail slugs were going to be my next try. I did not think about a slug at the ...

In addition to looking for pinches, run some 600 grit or higher sand paper along the edges and just inside the track. Works wonders. I have a copy o...

TXaggie, You will enjoy the P18 - it is truly under appreciated boat. I put my furler together with new harken drum and swivel for about $100 less...

I own a Prindle 18 and used to own a Hobie 16 and had to trailer both of them and typically have to raise sails on the water at the dock. The Prindle...

That is the cam/cleat for your traveler line. The line is tied off on the rear of the cross beam, through the traveler car then through the fairlead...

Reading this thread reminds me of the Flagpole scene from "A Christmas Story comes to mind. Who's going to skip protocol and go right to the "double...

I quite understand that the trailer will fit, but on narrow ramps, typically the ramp is not the critical width. You also have some sort of structure...

Seems to me that with the cost and effort to get your boat/trailer to be road legal you could go a buy a "travel size" boat with 8' beam. You may s...

I moved from an H16 to P18 and when you have a heavier crew (you and two kids or me and just about anybody) for the H16, the P18 is vastly superior. ...

No that I stirred things up and my sarcasm and sense of irony was lost on some - I will attempt to get things back on message. The above is My Prindl...

Google "stadium seat". The type without any metal. It is basically a seat cushion with a fold in the middle and nylon straps that adjust to make the...

I would argue that beach cats with a couple hooters on board have some benefits as well. I try never to use the word hooter in the singular - looses ...

Being part of Havlii's trailer navy, I back up what he says and all the other responses that said to keep your trailer tied down. I was holding a bow...

Truth be told, the RnBYBC doesn't really have any Rednecks in the fleet, it just allows us to fit in with the folks we have share boat ramps with and ...
