Hi all, I just wanted to introduce myself. I'm Greg, I live near Missoula, MT and I own 2 Clark San Juan 21's. I've been sailing since 2019 when my wife bought me a seat in an ASA101 course for Father's day.
I actually bought the first SJ21 (Orbweaver, hull #72) in 2018, and slowly worked through the winter getting her back into sailing shape. A previous owner had snapped her mast right at the spreaders and done a workable if not pretty repair. Anyway, we sailed her several times in the summer of 2019 and had a blast. However, I've wanted to replace the mast ever since I bought her. A couple weeks ago another SJ21 (hull #3) came up for sale for about 1/3 the price of a new mast, so I bought her as well. So now I have 2 SJ21's although #3 is most likely scrap because the deck has a couple soft spots. I didn't really buy her to restore, more for the mast. Oh, and the little Johnson 3.3hp outboard and 5 sails in very good condition that where also included.
Anywho, I'm still very much learning how to rig and sail and having a blast while doing so.
