IV8 4.8 DACRON WING $300


Selling my first love. Been cheating on her for so long,she deserves to be used and abused some more.

This is what I learned on....That said after the learning curve it and remaining wings (barring one freak accident) have endured little wrath. It's flyable as is but could use some tlc. The crossbar is copper. It adds a little weight but the wing uses lift so your not shouldering the weight. Easily replaced with aluminium tubing. The sail has wear but can still shred some bomber wind. Two battens tips are nubbed off but its not sharp and doesn't affect performance. Wingtips are in great condition. Outside battens wore through the sail a bit but nothing major. I'd honestly still use it if my 5.5 didn't overlap it. $300, delivered to NABX.

If you can overlook the cosmetics you can nab a wing for a solid price. Since its so large to ship I'd prefer to give anyone I can deliver it to at NABX a shot at it first. Also I'd be happy to teach the buyer a fast learning curve,prolonging the life of the wing. Here's some photos :thumbdown:
