I'm just curious whether this boat #4000 for the raffle is a brand new boat or an older boat. I would have thought they would have built a lot more boats than that.


Boat 4000 really is hull 4000. I was on the jury at the Thistle Orange Peel Regatta in Jacksonville in February. Amongst the other boats were numbers 3995, 3998, and 3999 - all brand new. All the sailors were talking about the 4000 boat milestone and the upcoming raffle.
