Er, ok Z, pour another one and get straightened out.....

I found out a lot about these boats on the 'net today.

The boat was suprising. Old couple that showed up in a gold 350 SDL that was immaculate. The boat was in a warehouse and had been painted with Interlux 2 years ago and left on the hard. No blisters, chalking or any other signs of neglect other than the teak. They ordered the boat from the VDS yard in 1986 and picked it up at the port of new orleans (one owner). The interior is mahogany with a V-berth, two salon benches and a morge-bunk aft on the port side of the engine. Little galley with an icebox, no head. Has an 18 hp SAAB diesel which has 1500 hours. All window gaskets in tact and no mildew inside. Running and standing rigging in order. Sloop rigged, stepped mast, 4 ft. 900 lb keel. The gentleman had had a stroke 2 years ago. The boat was in a warehouse they owned and they tried to sell me several duplexes they owned in the area too. Sad really.

I think it is worth 10-12K--they want 4K for it......


Comes with a 4 wheel heavy duty trailer and cradle which is probably worth 2K by themselves. I am going to take them a check tomorrow.

Wish I could have gotten it 4 months ago cause it would be sailing on the 4th of July on the Chesapeake.
