A boat I spent several fun but foggy seasons on, the King Bilge Board 1 Tonner "Terrorist" is being rebuilt as we speak! Martin, I hope you get a kick out of these pics!

Enjoy!

Terrorist

Yeah, I was blown away when I saw this on Sailing Anarchy.

Last I heard she was corroding away in some backwood swamp (and that was over the past 15+ years!), so this has to be a pretty serious effort.

I did several PORC, San Diego Races and Whitney Series on the boat back in the day, and as I know you know, upwind she was unbeatable!

BTW- it was posted in the "Most Disturbed IOR Design" forum:0 if you want to follow what else is posted...

Cheers

Sorry no pix

Hi Paul,

Sadly no. The boat had been donated to UCI when I sailed it (I sailed for UCI back in the day). I was about 21 years old and had girls and sailing onmy ind-not so much for pictures. Sorry.

Cheers

Donated by.............

Honestly can't remember if it came from the Cassels or not. I think not because at the time we had the boat they owned and were sailing the Chance 50 "Warrior", so my guess is it came from a subsequent owner.

I don't have anything on Terrorist, but I posted these on another thread about our boat that is named Hawkeye...

Sorry for the confusion. We own an Ericson/Olson 911 named Hawkeye. In the previous thread that I started after we bought it, it was brought up that there was a well known Bruce King design also named Hawkeye. Somewhere I had found this information on Hawkeye and Aggressive so I posted it to that thread.

Since this thread is about your rebuild of Terrorist I thought they were also fitting here.

King Bilgeboarders

Terrorist: 35'
Aggressive II: 37/38' (but always referred to as a 40?)
Hawkeye: 48'

Supposedly there is another one in Sweden, which I think was like Terrorist, but I have no idea what it is up to (or if it still floats) these days. This is unconfirmed.

That's right!

I totally forgot about that "episode":). Thanks Martin.

BTW- do you have any knowledge of the boat in Europe that supposedly was like Terrorist?

That would be the one!

Thanks Paul-
Certainly looks like it. Was this maybe a fin keel version (sans bilgeboards)? I see something by the mast on the lee side, but it does not look exactly like the deck slots on Terrorist, which I recall as being fwd of the mast. Any thoughts Martin?

i believe that i have some literature around here from bruce king(that came w/ the boat) that mentions that popeye was also a bilgeboarder.

Popeye

OK- sounds good-I just don't see the slots where I would expect them.

BTW-horrible trim on the boat! Too much sail/heel/rudder angle! Get those folks back on the rail, drop the leads back on the genoa (or go down to a #3), and blade out that main! That is a great picture of how NOT to sail!~

Now, I hope the owner is not reading this!:newwink:
