1940's B Class (two seater): Plank, runners, mast, boom, old cloth sail, about half of the body. I need to free up the space, and hopefully someone is looking for some ice boating history. 18' mast, wooden, very good shape, no paint. 14' plank, very good shape, stiff, no paint. Runners appear to be slush runners, but might be what was used back then. Body was rotted, and less than half intact. Have most of hardware. Sail poor cond. Believe was built in Mass. in late 40s, but 14' plank length is a mystery. If no one is interested, will cut up and make into sailing trophies, but would rather not destroy these antiques.
