The running costs will still be about the same as the old Boat If shaggy wants to keep sailing and have some fun he should look at a dinghy or sports boat or sail with on other owners boats. Personally I think shaggy needs to do a few bay to bays and alike and have some fun sailing again and forget the RQ and AS dickheads. Pulpit . 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SCANAS, The 11.6’s are a great boat and you can have a heap of fun on them the only problem is you still end up playing with the same dickheads from RQ if you keep it in brisbane and you are still limited to were you can play due to time and draft constants of a Big boat. You also seem to have missed my point about of the running cost of a 11.6. Forget about the costs of new sails and just look at the basics of owning a boat of that size. You will spend $20k with out a problem just on the marina fees, yearly slipping, insurance and the basic running costs and that’s just for cruising, now do a few races and the costs just go up from there. Now if shaggy went the sports boat / multi hull option for a few years he would be well ahead and still able to get a racing fix if he wanted it and He would also be able to do a heap of races that he may not of done before. He would also be able to get away from the RQ dickheads as well if that was what he wanted to do. After all you can pick up a sports boat for around $20k and still do Airle beach race week with only taking 2 weeks off work and have a heap of fun for far less $$$ than owning a bigger boat.

Not sure what condition your body's in Shaggy, but a two hour drive from you will give you great exciting racing with fun people who enjoy their sailing and try hard to win all at the same time. All for the tiniest fraction of the costs you're paying. If its not in good condition now, it soon will be. And you probably won't be the oldest.

Quite a light ballast for the displacement - I guess it passed for previous races. "Owner selling due to ill health" usually means he's already sick of the boat. This boat has had more decks than any other yacht I know of. I remember her when the Cittadinis launched her as Vendetta back in '88 with a standard Jim Inglis designed cabin superstructure. That was later cut off and the whole deck re-modelled to became a flat-top flush-decked day racer, in my humble opinion her best iteration. She has since had a couple more deck and superstructure re-modellings until the deck mounted Condo we see before us today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SCANAS, The Inglis at $275k does sound over priced, the thing is it’s had a lot of work done to it and new sails etc I’m told so the boat is worth more than say the old “Wild Thing / Wild One” that Whorro owns. It sold for $90k ish I’m told and it needs a major refit and has already had a bucket load spent on it. So it’s the old thing of start high and you can always go lower, start low and it’s hard to go up in price. I would of thought that the Inglis 47 Dolce would be in the $150-200k mark if the refit has been done right and she is now a turn key boat with very little spend. Mind you it’s only worth what someone is willing to pay on the day it sells. Pulpit 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I vaguely recall a discussion about that a few years ago when the S40 Mako was listed. It may have unfortunately in the deleted 80k thread. I think there was something like a stability issue and that is probably why the seller redid the keel???????? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, I vaguely remember that conversation too. Looking at the 40s results in recent races, 38s have beaten it across the line, on most occasions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So it has no deck or Interior, but if you tow it straight to the tip it comes with a brand new BBQ and an unused diesel motor? That’s half tempting...

And cheaper! Crazy There's an Inglis 47 down here that has just had a heap of work done.............. - Keel, mast and chainplates moved aft - New spreaders, standing rigging and running rigging - New Keel, keel box and rudder - New bowsprit - Full new deck gear setup with 8 winches - All new sails except main, inc 0's and staysails - New motor,, full resparay Not what I would do with that boat but she's bloody beautiful now and the owner loves her, so I guess $$ spent locally is better than buying a boat from interstate or O/S. Apparently goes a far bit better too 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
