37' Islander 37

Previous owner paid 25k before having the Westerbeke Diesel and transmission installed.

This is a wonderful 1969 Islander 37 Sailboat. The hull is fiberglass and very strong. Sailed from Portland to where she rests now in Coos Bay, OR

This boat has a Westerbeke 30 diesel and transmission with less than 900 hours. This engine was installed professionally to replace the atomic gas engine. When the engine was put in place, a dripless stuffing box was also installed. The shaft was professional aligned last year in Portland, OR.

Some other work that I have recently done:

-new jasco transfer pump bilge pump
-rebuilt original shower bilge pump
-2 new 6v deep cycle batteries
-1 new 12v starter battery
-new y-valve for overboard/holding tank from toilet
-40amp alternator
-New hot water heater electric or engine heat is on board but not yet installed.
-Kerosene heat- tank was removed and serviced- is in place but just needs to be secured and hooked back up.
-New antimicrobial cushions covered by marine vinyl throughout boat with a few extra cushions that I used in the cockpit while cruising.
-rebuilt 2-way whale gusher 25 manual bilge pump.

Work to be completed-
-I began some painting in the cabin and removal of headliner- The ceiling is currently bare. I have one roll of reflectix insulation ready to install as well as some marine vinyl that matches new cushions ready to install.

-I live about 2 hours from where the boat sits, on my last visit, the 12v system seems to have developed a short or bad ground. I had time to hook up a battery tender and test the control panel (tested good) but am not familiar enough with electrical to have found the bad ground. All electrical was replaced professionally by the previous owner within the last 10 years so I believe that this is a very simple fix. I just did not quite know where to look. This means that although all 12v systems worked great while I lived aboard including the refrigerated ice box, bilge pumps, cabin lights etc... They currently are not getting power.
