1979 MFG-19. Good condition with Jib and Main sail # 103 and all hardware. No motor. Trailer with new tirs and hubs. $2000.00 in upstate New York. 315-489-0919. Thanks, Harvey Eatonby heaton - classifieds
Paul, I believe that the adjustment line you are talking about is to hold the rudder down when you get into deeper water. Where I dock my 19 the water is real shallow, I release the line from the cleat when coming to dock and the rudder swings up. My rudder swings freely on the pivot bolt. Hope this helps.

Paul and Christopher, Nice to hear of your adventures with your MFG-19s. We have had a lot of fun this summer even though we got a late start. I replaced the wood by the mast with Oak. But I have seen pictues with wood on both sides. I would like to purchase a Genoa sail but I'm not sure how close the measurements need to be.

Dick, Sorry that I confused you, the sails are the originals that came with the boat.

We finally got it on Lake Ontario on thursday. My wife and I have never sailed anything other than a kite so it was quite an experience. I would still be rigging the boat if not for the rigging instructions on this site. Friday went bettby heaton - sailmfg
Dick, Can you give me a contact for new or used sails. The MFG 19 I purchased was to include them but I haven't seen them yet. There are many on the net but a recomendation would make me a little more comfortable. Thanks, Harveyby heaton - sailmfg
I just purchased a 1978 MFG 19 and have a million questions? How do you know the year of the boat other than the registration. The headliner of this boat has been removed, any options other than paint. Used sails? Owners manual? What type or brand of paint for below water part of the boat. Thanks Harveyby heaton - sailmfg
