1979 Force 5

  • I bought this boat about 10 years ago, planning on restoring it to sailing form. It has a great trailer with suspension and all the necessary rigging including Harken Blocks and traveler, hiking strap, 3 piece mast and a North Sail with a sail bag, original daggerboard and rudder with a hiking stick, all in really good shape. Things that need fixing are: The fiberglass on the hull around the mast hole is cracked and torn on the inside, definently some fiberglass work needed. Where the thwart attached to the hull in the front is a little rotten. It is still solid and would sail OK, but will eventually need some attention. The pintle on the rudder is sheared and needs to be replaced. And finally, the caps on the boom need to be replaced.
