Probably for a good reason that I don't know of but, nobody seems to have posted here on this Atlanta Boat. Description says # 174 but hull says 248. Might be able to be rehabilitated but might have been scaled to something else...

This boat is not registered. It may be a Reynolds but will need to be verified to be legal. The boat is heavy at 25#. Considering it age this is a total rebuild, interior and rig. Even the ballast should be replace. There are a couple of Reynolds hulls being race. I would be a fine boat though otherwise.

Auction ended with no sale. 22 bids. High bid of $305 did not meet the reserve. Too bad. Seems like a fair price for buyer and seller for that boat with basic boat and rig and no electronics. Maybe the seller does not realize that time and new hull design has passed by the Reynolds hulls.
