Description:

One step above “Project Boat” four steps below “Mint”. This is a beautifully designed sloop with a graceful shear, beautiful overhangs and a traditional house. She has a solid hull (no blisters) and a solid deck (no perceptible soft spots). She has a good inventory of sails in good condition, roller furled jib and an Atomic Four 30 HP inboard. This is an unusually seaworthy and comfortable keel-center-boarder. She is “on the hard” (on land) in Island Heights, NJ, fifteen minutes from the beach in Seaside Heights, NJ. Storage is paid through October. A recent owner, who invested in a new companionway hatch, a new, teak-and-Lexan forward hatch and a new lazarette hatch was told by his wife, “It’s me or the boat”. Not wanting to part with half his worldly possessions or his wife ( I didn’t ask, ”In what order”), the previous owner put the boat on eBay – without a reserve. If you want a great deal on a boat that needs work, this is it. A boat of the same year and model, recently restored, sold on Sailboats.com for over $28,000. If you have basic wood-working skills, and some time, you can turn this classic into a great investment or your dream get-a-way. Inspection by appointment only. Sail Area: 423 Square Feet.

Disclaimer: I am not a boat broker or any way an expert on boats. Condition of the boat is described to the best of my abilities.
