That's unfortunate news. I checked the video out this morning and that is very minor damage to the interior and an easy restoration. For 7 grand that's a seriously nice boat.

For other interested buyers. Google S&S6.6 and get further details. This is not the SS30 like the Defiance or Swarbick 30. Still rates as a half tonner but is lighter. I like it.

Looks like an Aqua30, pre Defiance 30.

The 6.6 were made in Finland. The keel is a different shape and on the plan it has a trim tab. The one for sale does not have it though I think. the hull is a bit finer forward as well.
A few years ago there were two SS30's for sail in Sydney with the same deck moulding as this one but were on cold moulded timber hulls. They may have been the plugs for this one.
