I received the following email from George McKim in Raleigh. The information will be posted on the "For Sale" page (hopefully with some pictures) in due course.
Hello,
I have 2 Fireballs I would like to advertise for sale on your site.
The boat numbers are US6381 and US10144.
US6381 was built in the late 60's or early 70's by Chippendale boats and has been sailed in Fireball races up until a couple of years ago.
US10144 was built by Herb McKim who was the President of the US Fireball Association in the 70's. Both boats have all the equipment necessary to sail them including rudder, centerboard, mast, boom and sails, however the equipment is not new and these boats would be good for beginners or people who just want to have some fun on the water, not necessarily for highly competitive racing. Both boats need some work, US6381 needs some refinishing of the deck and US10144 has no deck, it needs a new one and it needs a little work done to the front bulkheads. Both could be easily made ready to sail with some TLC by someone who enjoys working on boats. Also included is a double decker trailer and a dolly. All of this for $1,000 or best offer. Pictures available upon request.
Thanks, George McKim
