New Mexico Dolphin, Yankee #196?, Tigeras, New Mexico  
   

The following picture and email was sent in by SailinMike to the Forum on July 25, 2008. Anyone having info please reply to Mike on the Forum

Does anyone have any information on a Dolphin that was sold on E-bay out of Dallas Texas approximately January of 2007? It's now for sale in New Mexico and before I buy it. I'm trying to learn as much of this boat's history as possible.
The factory data plate is missing and the only ID numbers are a Texas State assigned HIN.

This a little pocket blue water cruiser it is 24' long. It is on a trailer. The boat is currently registered in NM and has a title. The trailer has no title but will have a bill of sale. The trailer has new tires and a spare. It is a tandom axle with buddy bearings. I towed it from Dallas TX. without any problems. I installed a knot meter, which I have not tried out. I also purchased a alcohol two burner stove on ebay. Haven't tried it out as of yet. This boat has a small galley with a sink and large ice box. The sink pump is brand new. It has a table which drops down into a double bunk and is 6' 4" in length. It has a V berth that can sleep two. I removed the marine head as it had no holding tank and replaced it with a new porta potti. The head room in the cabin is only 4' 6" but the hatch opens up and allows a person to stand up in the galley area. All the interior cushions are new. It has cockpit cushions that are in great shape. It has a teak grid for the cockpit sole. I've replaced both main and headsail haylards. It has a main, two head sails and a spinnaker (also spinnaker pole). It needs the running sheets for the headsail and spinnaker, also a topping lift. I have had the boat for a year and a half working on the cosmetics and interior. I have not sailed the boat but it is ready to launch and sail. I also replaced two of the through hulls at the sink drain and cockpit drains. The cockpit is self baling. It does have a 9.9 Mariner OB electric start, which I just had service. The boat has a motor well for the outboard. It is a full keel boat with a dagger board which drops down and gives it a 6'2" draft. If the board is up the draft is about 2'8". The sail number is 196 which is probaly the hull number. The price is firm please no trades. Call for more info./pictures I can e-mail 505 286-3183.
