I'm told its an old C-class. she's 25 ft long has a beam of 12' 6" constuction is wood with glass skin. each hull wieghs about 110 lbs. The boat was in the san francisco area in its day. Does anybody out there know anything about this boat or who built it. I'll try to get some better pictures as i get into restoration. I'm going to put a super cat tall rig on it for now. I really like to know what Size rig should be on it.

C-class uses 14' beam, 300 s.f. of "sail"

sorry for the bad picture's i'll take new ones later and post. Digging around on the boat I've now figured out what it is. It's a Hanson Coyote. Does that ring a bell with anybody.

Is this the boat? Caption reads, "Jim Hansen's Coyote(IV) Winning 1979 C-Class Invitational Regatta Sponsored by San Francisco Yacht Club".

Thanks, this is awsome info. I sent an e-mail to the host of that web site maybe "Joe" has more info. Thanks for the picture upgrade Gary. From what I can tell she's IIA from the picture above. No I do not have the wing.

I have spoken to Joe, He owned the boat for many years. The boat is Coyote I narrower hulls than II. She did have a wing sail. In about 1972 The front cross beam failed and the wing was lost. In 76 she was put back together and had several different rigs from off other boats. I now know how she is built (huge help). I guess now the sanding party begins.

Very cool project! Do you think you will go back to the wing sail or use another rig?

for now I'm going to put a super cat rig on her. i would love to have a wing. maybe down the road. i'm a little afraid that if i build a modern wing, then the hulls would be the draw back. I'm fairly sure she'll just be a cool cruiser. I do feel confident that she'll be fast tho. Today about 30% of one hull got rough sanded.
