Please note engine has an oil leak which will be repaired at the close of auction for winning buyer. Rudder shaft has a bearing that needs replacing which will be repaired for winning buyer. Please don't expect a boat that needs no work, she is 30 years old and needs some cosmetic attention. I encourage viewing the boat prior to bidding if you are unsure as all sales are final with an auction. you bid and win the boat is yours. Please no time wasters. This is a no reserve auction so you will be getting a bargain here. A lot of boat for little money. The good news, wetted area sand blasted in 2014 so no rust below the waterline or inside the hull. Entire boat was sandblasted and repainted 8 years ago. A few spots on gun whale and bow sprit now showing surface rust. Very minor in my opinion however top sides will need paint as this system is 8 years old a bit faded from exposure, so surface rust can be taken care of at this time. Recent antifoul June 2016 which is when these photos were taken. New stainless standing rigging 8 years ago, running rigging in good condition and always stored below deck when not in use. Sails flaked and stored below deck in bags when not in use. The boat has been well maintained and cared for by its 1 owner from new. Engine was rebuilt 10 years ago and has only been used really to get in and out of the marina. Good compression and starts easily. Has all safety gear on board such as flares, life jackets and epirb. All in date. This first picture is when the boat was sandblasted and repainted 8 years ago. The rest are current and show new antifoul and anodes checked. Top sides could do with a repaint as they are a bit faded. Reason for sale is due to lack of time to use the boat. The boat has not had a lot of use for the last 4 years. I bought it from the original owner with the intent to sail it up to Brisbane. Ive had her for 7 months and will not have the time to do this due to work commitments. I would prefer to see her go to someone who can use her as intended. My dream as a live aboard cruiser will have to wait a few more years. The boat has had a full survey 3 months ago and is available for viewing. Engine is 22hp v twin Perkins and pushes the boat along at 5 knots easily. Fuel tank is 150 litres. Water is stored in 2 90 litre bladders with manual pumps for sinks. Sounder and speed logger all in working order as are Nav lights and radios. Vessel can be sailed away, all that's required is to add a tender and a life raft. I have a brand new boxed raymarine plotter with c maps to go with her as well as a Smev 6000 stainless oven to replace the old one shown in the picture. Old oven works well and is in reasonable condition just a bit small.
Please note, vessel is located in Whyalla marina south Australia. RELISTED DUE TO NON PAYMENT. Please read the listing and location of the boat before you place a winning bid. Make sure your job is secure and you can afford to buy the boat. Very time consuming and unfair on me and other serious buyers when impulse bidders win. Please only bid if you want to buy the boat and can afford it. Thank youCurrent valuation on survey $35000 but priced to sell with NO reserve. This is the last time I will be relisting so don't miss out, NO RESERVE. Will sell to the highest bidder. Please only bid if you have the money and permission from your other half.
