* This is a like new 1975 15.5' Chrysler Mutineer in Excellent Condition * I have owned this boat for many years and completely restored the boat and trailer over the past year and a half.This boat has been built since 1971 by six different manufacturers and is still being built today!The boat is extremely fun and easy to sail - great for a beginner or experienced sailor.You will be hard pressed to find a boat easier to sail or faster than this one in this size range. Chrysler (1971–1980)Texas Marin International (TMI) (1981–1982)Wellcraft Marine (1982–1984)Gloucester Yachts (1985–1986)Cardinal Yachts (1986–2003)Nickels Boat works (2003–Present) The Boat has been redone inside and out with Marine two-part epoxy paint. All running rigging has been replaced and all standing rigging is in excellent condition. The sail area is 150 sq. ft. with main and jib and the jib has a new Ronstan Above-Deck Jib Roller furler. The trailer has been gone over and received new paint, new rims and tires and new wiring and lighting. All sails are easily trimmed, raised and lowered from within the cockpit due to the unique rigging. I love this boat and am only selling it because I am retiring and have bought a 40 footer to cruise the Caribbean. I am going to miss it! * Includes hiking straps, fore and aft, for those who seek the ultimate in their sailing experience. * The cockpit itself is 7 feet long. Standard racing crew on the Mutineer is two, but for day sailing the Mutineer has a maximum capacity of 4 people. The Mutineer can also be rigged for single-handing for those with enough experience. The deck is white with a yellow hull. Ronstan and Harken hardware comes standard on Mutineers. The Mutineer 15 is equipped with a cunningham boomvang and jib uphaul system. There is foam flotation to provide additional flotation.The boat has a centerboard that can be raised and lowered according to varying conditions and for ease of transport. When the centerboard is fully extended, the Mutineer 15 will draw a maximum of 4 feet 1 inch. When the centerboard is raised the boat will draw a maximum of 8 inches. The boat displaces a total of 410 pounds.The mast is 21 feet 8 inches tall. The total allowed sail area for the mutt is 150 square feet. The main sail is 100 square feet, and the jib is 50 square feet maximum. The Mutineer can also be rigged for a spinnaker. Sail area for the spinnaker is 166 square feet maximum.On Jun-05-14 at 12:30:26 PDT, seller added the following information: The sails are in good condition.On Jun-07-14 at 04:12:31 PDT, seller added the following information: The bearings on the trailer were inspected this spring and greased - ready for a trip across the state or across the country.On Jun-10-14 at 14:51:59 PDT, seller added the following information: My reserve is under $800 - a trailer of this quality would cost that much or more today today.On Jun-10-14 at 15:06:08 PDT, seller added the following information: A boat and trailer would be thousands - someone is going to get a fantastic deal. I have sailed this boat several times this year and it is better and easier to sail now than when I first bought it. You are basically getting a new boat and trailer. Restored can be better than new because a long-time owner knows what it needs to make it better.
