WOW!





I found a Kurt Hughes tri for sale. I believe it was built from an older set of plans, but it is a great example of how nicely they can turn out. This one is equipped with a hobie 21 rig. A 20 knot ride for less than the cost of a new mainsail for Rapscallion! Well, that is if you don't count your own labor. It takes about 100 hours to build it, and the cost of materials is about 3,500; if you buy the rig and sails used. The owner is asking 20,000 for this one. I think I'll build mine. At least I'll have something to do in the winter.
