Great starter boat, especially for lake sailing. Deserves a good home that will race, enjoy, and take care of it. First starter Thistle, only selling because a new (to us) boat is on the way. Multiple regatta top 5 finishes in the past 10 years. (2nd place Saratoga 2014, 2nd Place Glimmerglass 2024). The good: Rails are not delaminated, gratings are still tight, and the 45’s were re-set with epoxy in 2012. Hull is still stiff and features original gelcoat inside and out. Bottom faired with longboards, new CB gasket, rigging redone, and weight reduced...

I bought this Thistle just over a year ago and used it last summer. Has been stored in my garage outside of summer. She’s a wonderful boat but I don’t have suitable crew and therefore I sadly must let her go! She is fully rigged and ready to launch with a little used North Fisher main and North Proctor jib, both in excellent condition; as well as 3 spinnakers, 2 practice mains and 2 practice jibs in good to fair condition. Nearly new Sailor Taylor over the boom cover with removable side covers is included. She was fully restored by...

Sea Scout Ship 300 has 5 Thistles that we are no longer using and they need to find good homes.  The "Blue" boat is a woodie, the rest are glass.  These boats have been sitting for about 3 years, so they will need some work, I would suspect that all 5 need tire and bearing attention.

Please see website link to view photos in google drive. I'm selling my Clark Thistle #3269. I bought it in 2020 and have put about $1500 of work into it since buying it. I'm asking $1900 OBO. Since buying it I've replaced the centerboard thwart, mast thwart, and 45 degree braces with new mahogany boards as well as sanding and revarnishing all wood. A new layer of grey gelcoat has been applied to the cockpit, too. The boat comes with trailer, a silver mast, boom, centerboard, rudder/tiller, spinnaker pole, 2 spinnakers, and I believe 2 sets of sails along with...
