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.

After 6 years, I’ve finally finished my wood boat, 663. I’ve always preferred wood over glass and I’m very pleased with 663 so I’m selling 4060. Lightly used,incredibly stiff, flawless inside and out. New everything except for my favorite mast and boom with new standing and halyards. Seadek non-skid, double tapered spin bags, super clean deck layout, crew loves it, no more bruises. double mainsheet block; main and traveler. Over 35k invested. I’m willing to take a trade in for a decent glass boat or a decent SUV or 4 door truck. Text me if you need more photos and...
