Re: [bolger] Birdwatcher-II for sale

Thanks for all the camera clicks, John.  Wow, that is almost 100 photos on the BW alone.  Lots of good memories in those pictures, even the yawl experiment.  If anyone has a Birdwatcher and wants to try a mizzen, I thought it worked out fairly well, speaking about sailing and anchoring.  I just didn't need that much stuff on the boat.  Bob L.

Plenty of photos of Wave Watcher here:

She's indeed a fine boat! I'll be she's gonna be fast after Bob takes all
his radio gear and electronics out. ;o)

I’d be on that like teenagers on a pizza if I had the cash Bob :-)

Speaking of Birdwatchers, this is a Birdwatcher-II.

This Bolger designed sailboat has been a good friend since she was built 10 years ago.  But, time marches by, and in the spirit of down-sizing, I have built a Welsford SCAMP, and my sailing has moved to that vessel.  So, with reluctance, it is time to find a new owner for "Wave Watcher."

"Wave Watcher" is a 24-ft sharpie hull with the Birdwatcher style raised decks. This boat was built true to Bolger's plans using top quality materials.  One significant upgrade has been conversion from a Honda 2-hp to a Nissan 6-hp outboard with a true reverse gear.  She has been actively used on Pacific Northwest waters for many years.  She is being sold with a quality EZLoader galvanized trailer. The total list of included gear is quite long, and listed at

The complete package is $12,500.  The boat, located in Corvallis, Oregon, is available immediately.  Lots of other information is on the referenced web page.

Here is an opportunity to own a very comfortable and and safe boat. Tossed into this is the fact that The Birdwatcher-II is fundamentally a fast and fun sailboat!
