Looking to buy an Olson 911 in the Pacific NW Region. I realize this is a longshot but hopefully something might be out there.

Many thanks in advance!

For the last several months there has been a clean looking one listed in CL, in Olympia. I have no contact info, tho.

Perhaps the Internet Archive and its "way back machine" might help. Perhaps.

Thanks for mentioning that boat. If that is the one I am thinking of I believe it has a wheel? I am hoping to find one with a tiller, as I believe the vast majority had.

I thought the same when I bought mine. 18 years later I have never regretted the wheel. Admittedly, the optional wheel supplied was ridiculously small. However, the “arm stretch” issue was later corrected with a 32” Lewmar folding wheel.
As I’m sure you are aware by now, the 911s are rare to the market.
I wouldn’t let the wheel thing dissuade you.

I've seen two 911s in the PNW (Vancouver, BC) come and go since I bought mine. And I'm aware of at least one additional sale last year.
