Just returned end of November from 2 trans atl crossings. Boat needs some general cosmetic work non essential - couple of hatches need new gaskets, some lexan is crazed but not cracked or leaking, couple of reefing blocks on boom, minor paint touch ups (I have the epoxy on board), aft shower the floor needs resealing so as you can shower we use the fwd head so I have not bothered, galley porthole needs resealing, engine tachometer needs replacing - just the vdo gauge (I have one onboard), wind generator has lost its blades during last passage and will need replacing (Just the blades) if you want the wind generator (Red Baron mounted on top of mizzen), one davit needs re-welding. All systems and electronics are in as new condition. Good inventory of sails. Most spares are onboard just need doing. Installed new shaft 2005.
Its time to return to the rat race and the kids need school. I don’t have the inclination to wait for a sale if I am not sailing further. We have loved our cruising and enjoyed living aboard but sadly all good things must come to an end.
Will consider partial trades for property, RV, farm, land, or smaller boat. Family currently living aboard, will need a couple of weeks to unload (This can be done between deposit, and full payment). Trades need to be pre aproved.
Dockage paid up until end of March.
