Hi there ;
just joined this group today.
I bought a Scandinavian-built "Crescent Skipper" small trailer sailer. There is however confusion of what it actually is; in trying to unearth some info on it (apparently a rare beast; internet has very little info on either) I found that there is also an almost identical boat called "Kormoran"(made in Poland by whom??). These two boats look identical to me and even have the same colour scheme.
The Kormoran does seem to have twin retractable keels, whereas mine has a fixed ballast keel????
How many are there still around ? I found one in The Netherlands and one somewhere in the Baltic (on this forum).
Is there anyone who can shed some light on either the Crescent Skipper or the polish Kormoran for me? All info, pictures, manufacturers, spare parts source, sailing reports , ownership tips, specific maintenance details etc would be much appreciated.
Many thanks,
Woody
