I got this boat as a gift, while my heart was in the right place when I said yes, and I am thankful for her, I found myself with a monthly fee that is killin me, While it says 3k ill take and offer, really, whomever gets to it first is theres. She looks in rough shape and it was my dream to get her up and going, I just dont have the money or the time. Thank you and have a good one!

ps. she floats.

Even around here it takes a few years to get that green.

Bristol 35.5

Condition: Fair

I don't know what it rates but seller states: "It must go fast" Probably hobbled by the piling stuck through the bottom.

holding on that seawall looks good, that anchor isn't working hard and no scope...

 

[Sail4beer]

Yeah, but once they lift it off, all you need is a couple dozen spray foam cans and you rolling.

 

[SloopJonB]

I don't want to think about what they consider Poor condition.

Or totaled for that matter

here's some more info from the seller:

she was hit by Ian in Cape Coral and she landed on neighbors pylons that put a 8 “ hole at bottom of.. she was listed for 50k before Ian. Everything works fine many upgrades it was sailed from Toronto to Bahamas then to Cape Coral. She is a beautiful boat needs some work on it to be able to take you anywhere in the world. She has been in fresh water in the last 10 years. Anyone interested give me an offer you must arrange for removal. No water inside

Yeah - an 8" hole in the bottom will drain pretty efficiently.

Sounds like it wasn't insured.

Easy fix for one of those YouTubers. lol. Is that considered a "grounding"?

 

[toddster]

Eight inches??? Usually, in the internet, they exaggerate the other way…

Forespar's Sta-Plug's 5" wide - jam a few in that "8" hole" and you should be good-to-go...

Cheers!

Sailing boat 22 feet long 6 feet wide 4 feet deep, in reasonable condition with trailer for towing.
Probably needs painting on the outside and some work on the interior.
Going cheap because we need the space.
Would consider swapping for a van.

"Probably needs painting"?

Geez - a little wax should fix it right up.

it'll buff out... right?

never seen winch handles like that...

 

[SloopJonB]

Bottom action winches - one of the worse ideas once float by manufacturers.

Larry Pardey liked them for some reason.

Larry couldn't reach the top mounted handles???
