Somebody should grab these. The Wildfires are a brilliant yacht that came out around 1980 and are still relevant today.

I had one for a few years and as a trailer sailer they are hard to beat.

I spoke with them about 5 years ago and they were talking about destroying them next time they shifted shop.

That would be a real shame.

Hardly anybody is producing 18 to 25 foot trailer sailers any more because though there is a market for them in the $15,000 to $25,000 price bracket, to build them and make a reasonable profit margin, they would have to retail around the $50,000 mark.

The 80s was certainly the heyday for trailer sailers in Australia.
