Advertised for sale on eBay October 2024, "Buy it Now" of £75.
Ad reads as below :
'Macaroon' is an old GRP sailing dinghy, believed to date from 1972 and to be of the 'Paper Dart' design
These are very popular boats, but this one has been sitting idle for a while so it's time for it to have a new home.
It is complete, with mast, boom, sails and rudder, lines etc., but is in need of a good clean up and some 'TLC'! The cover is in poor condition, and will need replacing or repair.
Bungs included (inner, and outer) but need re-fitting.
Sails: Main and jib both in reasonable condition. Sail no: 3174
