The Kittiwake 23 Registry
The Kittiwake 23 Registry is a compilation of the Kittiwakes that are still sailing around the country. The goal is to locate and document all of the Kittiwakes that were manufactured. It is set up to include hull number, year built, boat name, current owners name, hailing port and names known previous owners.

The registry is growing nicely. All the Kittiwakes that were sailing on Lake Hefner in Oklahoma City during the early 70's have been listed. The current status of only a few of these is known. Others around the country have been located thru the internet. A few of these are listed for sale. If you know of any other K-23 owners, please ask them to send their information to be included in the registry. Please send the information on your boat so that the registry can be made as complete as possible. Any other thoughts and ideas you have would be appreciated also. Where do you sail?

It is hoped that this will grow to become a forum where Kittiwake owners can contact each other to share experiences regarding sailing, maintaining and preservation/restoration of Kittiwakes.
