Description: |
Unfortunately, I am selling my 1973 Pearson 35, a classic boat I acquired in 2019 and sailed along the west coast of Florida. A year ago, Hurricane IAN damaged the mast, and it remains broken. Living in Montreal, Canada, I no longer have the time to work on the boat. It is currently located in Safe Cove Marina in Port Charlotte, stored on dry land.
In its current state, it serves as a project boat. The Universal 5424 engine is operational but requires attention. The windlass works, and there are lithium batteries, although it is advisable to address the electrical system. Plumbing also requires attention.
Despite needing work, there are no soft spots or delamination; the core is in good condition. Tasks to be undertaken include mast splicing or acquiring another used mast, fixing the electrical system, and obtaining sails. The centerboard was removed, presenting two options: constructing a new one (with the pattern available) or fiberglassing the hull, a method employed by many boats.
Safe Cove charges a monthly fee of $290 for storage plus electricity. The boat is sold as-is and open to offers. |
