 About the Flicka Minimize

For a nice brief history of the Flicka sailboat class read Rod Bruckdorfers article.

"A Brief History of the Flicka" ~ R. Bruckdorfer

Pacific Seacraft Corporation bought the mold for the Flicka in 1977 and started producing well constructed and finished Flickas as capable offshore cruisers.  By the 1990's the Flicka was at the peak of it's evolution but production was ceased in 1998 with hull number #434.

"Flicka" ~ Small Craft Advisor

I bought one of the last models; Flicka number #423, "Caraway" in 2002. Caraway, pictured above is a good example with the enclosed head, inboard Yanmar diesel and all the other improvements offered in the later boats.  She was a little neglected when I aquired her but she was still a very sound and practical little boat.

There's only two I know of so far and I've not read either. Hopefully, I'll buy them soon.
