Just came across this wylo 35 build for sale in Wellington, NZ. Asking NZD $12,000. She's a gaff rigged 35 foot centerboarder (3' 3" draft). She has tan bark sails and a 30hp Kubota diesel engine included. Probably be better than building a deep sea world steely from scratch, would save years and allot of work.
Update 27th April 2025. An Australian member of the wylo2 io forum flew over "the ditch" checked this vessel out and it is as advertised. The steel was pre-blasted and primed, it did sit outside for 5 years though.
NZ is the birthplace of Nick's original wylo2 design, and there are quite a few other wylo owner/sailers, old gaffers and talented classic boatbuilders/sailers around there, who are concentrated into several areas (Northland, Auckland, ?Nelson sounds) . Travelling/trucking distances are not as great in NZ like here in Australia, which should mean less time/money to move the boat to it's new boat building shed.
