How wide is it amidships, the widest point of the boat.
How tall is the actual mast, not off the floor).
Are there sails, if so any markings?
An EC12 is only 58" and width would be 11.5 or so.
Ec12 mast is 72" long above deck.
Ballast for an ec12 would only be 15-18 lbs.
Ok, here are the numbers I got just now.
Length = 87"
Width = 15.5"
Height = Approx. 19"
Sail = 96"
Ballasts = 49lbs
Another question I would have is, what is it's value? I would imagine that this boat, at least the time, was a pretty penny. It's quite large and would have had a very small niche group. My grandfather who owned it was quite well off (died when I was a baby), and from what my dad told me, the reason he had an FM radio built was because he didn't want to have wait for someone to get off of their frequency so that he could use his boat. The boat is too large for me to keep, let alone use. I don't have means to transport something this large, and frankly, I'm more into RC cars.
