Description

Beautiful vintage gaff rigged pond boat in great crispy condition.  The original red sails make it to be quite the showy example.
This pond boat has definitely been in the water a few times but it was certainly lovingly cared for.  The hull is solid wood, the mast, booms & bow sprit
are also all original. The deck is a natural dark stained wood color and the green painted hull & white pinstripe are also original.  The quite heavy molded
cast iron keel weight and rudder have the original gold paint with minor wear from normal use. The pond boat also features an adjustable rudder
control
that can be preset at three different positions to
control
the pond boats
direction
.
The original RED sails are what makes this great pond boat stand out over & above other pond boats.  They are absolutely all original and in excellent condition.
There is no water staining or dry rot to the sails.
The amount of rigging is minimal but appears to be all original, it is also solid and free of dry rot.
The wood stand was probably custom made for this pond boat and it sits on quite nicely and level.
If you have a collection of other pond boats, this one will certainly be worthy of that collection.  However, these red sails will certainly make a dramatic statement.
I don't think this great pond boat was ever disassembled since it was put to water, so it would be best to not
disturb
anything.  However that will make the shipping
costs quite a bit more expensive.  So, at the buyers request it would be possible to step the mast & rigging. That would have to be at the buyers discretion. The
shipping
costs quoted are for the pond boat fully assembled as seen in the photos.
The dimensions are 33" long x 31 1/2" high as it sits on the stand.
