Looking for a Manta 19 | 3 | Wed 02 Mar 2011 22:17:14 |
Muddy Paws Fri 25 Feb 2011 19:04:06 | We've seen a rather scruffy Manta 19 and love the class, just about perfect for us. Are there any others out there for sale - particularly if there is a really nice one for sale! Simon | |

The red hull is very faded but a quick fix with Polytrol this season then sand and Toplac this winter. It comes with a 5hp Honda that weighs in at 27kg - surely that's huge overkill for such a light displacement boat? | |
Mekicevica Wed 02 Mar 2011 21:50:31 | Hi, Simon. Congratulations on your new Manta. I am also a new Manta owner and I have enjoyed a winter of sanding, painting, repairing, etc. Still the keel to do (starts tomorrow) and counting down the days for the re-launch. What sail number is yours, and where are you going to sail? Luis | |
Muddy Paws Wed 02 Mar 2011 22:17:14 | I don't know what the sail number is yet! I'll look for it on Sunday. Sailing on the Deben river this year. I check the keel on Monday - we'll see then what the news is. |
