Black Cloud #1313, Built in 1959 by D&M.
Trailer built by Dayton Frame and Axle in 1942.
I bought her from the original owner 32 years ago and have kept her in good shape.

In addition to her wooden masts and boom, I've kept the old hardware polished and bright.

Bronze bow plate and strip.

Brass thistle stow bin knobs.

George Devlin (thistle #108) centerboard system.
$58.00 option on the purchase of a new boat ($1800+$58).

I think this old stuff is cool plus it still works.

Not many Thistler's use an original hickory spinnaker pole.

This old stuff cleans up nice and coating keeps it that way.

West Marine is out of stock on these.
