THISTLE FIBERGLASS, circa 1970’s $2900 Original owner raced it a few times, then put it in shed until 1996. Our kids had seen a Thistle and absolutely wanted one.

Good condition; sails and spinnaker fine but old, new gold mast, newly repainted green hull, teak rails, old but reliable trailer. Reno, NV annieowen@gmail.com tel.775-324-5123; 775-722-6020

Since moving to Central Florida, 2965 has sat under a tarp for more than a year and a half. If someone is in need of a fleet-ready boat, reach out and give me a serious offer. Would rather have it sailing than sitting. Old set of sails, trailer - if wanted - rudder centerboard. If for some reason photos are not loading, email me and I’ll send some along.

After decades of being out of Thistle sailing, coming back! However, after just a few regattas, my rudder was stolen from storage space ;( I have a round aluminum tiller - however, open to an alternative rudder with a tiller... Needs to be good enough to sail regional regattas. Let me know if you can help.
