A bit of a project, has a BSS till 2020, masts, spars, sails, standing and running rigging are with boat, as well as a yanmar 1gm10 engine in place, plus navman speed and depth instruments - no cushions or cooker, no GPS, no VHF, no trailer, moored in the water at Goole sails are at my house - She has a small leak from a window and a stanchion base and the cockpit locker covers are in pretty bad shape.She has been well used and needs work but nothing beyond a reasonable DIY persons capability, I used her as a donor boat for parts for my Cobra 750 so no cushions or cooker, no GPS, no VHF, no trailer,.Sails are a slab reefed main and furling headsail, both seem ok except for UV strip which will need replacing but no guarantees given, furling foil has a slight kink in it but may be ok, not checked standing or running rigging , mast is unstepped and would need re stepping prior to sailing, one spreader is damaged, however I have the tube to make a replacement, the yanmar engine was running but has become reluctant to start, might be something and nothing maybe needs bleeding or may need a rebuild I have no idea, worst case bung an outboard on the back.She is 23 feet long 8 foot wide and draws 3 and a half feet, quite heavy for a little boat at nearly 3.5 tonnes, very stable but also very slow.I would like to keep her to do up a bit but now I have acquired another yacht and the two sets of mooring fees are too much to afford so she has to go...I am available open her up for viewing weekend afternoons as i work full time during the week.Collection only, if you need trailering or crane-age etc that is your responsibility I cannot arrange delivery or lift out etc.
