YOU ARE BIDDING ON MY GIBSEA 242 4 BERTH FIN KEELED CRUISER/RACER SAILING YACHT, SHE WAS MADE IN APPROXIMATELY 1990 AND IS A VERY POPULAR DESIGN AND WELL KNOWN FOR THEIR FAST SAFE SAILING ABILITY WITH ALL THE LINES BEING LED BACK TO THE COCKPIT. SHE IS JUST OVER 23 FT LONG AND A BEAM OF 8 FT SO THERE IS PLENTY OF ROOM INSIDE WITH GOOD HEADROOM. SHE HAS A LARGE COMPANIONWAY HATCH SO IT IS EASY TO GET DOWN BELOW. SHE HAS AN OUTBOARD WELL, UNDER ONE OF THE SEATS IN THE COCKPIT AND HAS BEEN RECENTLY ANTIFOULED. THERE IS A 9.9 HP SUZUKI 2 STROKE PULL START OUTBOARD WITH SEPARATE FUEL TANK THAT IS ALL PLUMBED IN. AS YOU GO DOWN BELOW THROUGH THE LARGE HATCH ON THE PORT SIDE THERE IS A SEPERATE TOILET COMPARTMENT WITH SEA TOILET AND SINK, AND THE KITCHEN WITH COOKER WITH OVEN, A SINK AND VARIOUS STORAGE CUPBOARDS. ON THE STARBOARD SIDE FACING FORWARDS THERE IS THE NAVIGATION TABLE THAT LIFTS UP TO GIVE STORAGE FOR YOUR NAVIGATION EQUIPMENT AND CHARTS ETC THE NAVIGATION SEAT ALSO COMES OFF AND HAS STORAGE UNDERNEATH. BEHIND THE NAVIGATION STATION THERE IS A DOUBLE BED WITH A SHELF FOR BOOKS, THERE ARE STORAGE AREAS AND A GOOD LEISURE BATTERY UNDERNEATH THE BED. THERE ARE TWO MAHOGANY EFFECT HEADLINING PANELS THAT GO AS FAR FORWARD AS THE MAST WITH THE REST OF THE CABIN PAINTED. THERE IS A FOLDING TABLE AND THERE IS STORAGE UNDERNEATH ALL THE SEATS. THE CUSHIONS WERE WASHED, AND WHEN PUT BACK WERE A BIT TIGHT HENCE THE CURLED UP CUSHIONS. IF THEY DON’T STRAIGHTEN, THE FOAM WILL JUST NEED TRIMMING A BIT. IN FRONT OF THE MAST IS AN OPENING HATCH THAT AS WELL AS LETTING IN EXTRA LIGHT, ALSO ALLOWS A NICE BREEZE TO COME THROUGH IN THE SUMMER. THE WASHBOARDS ARE ALSO TRANSPARENT AND LET LOTS OF LIGHT INTO THE CABIN EVEN WITH THE HATCH CLOSED SHE IS IN HER ORIGINAL GELCOAT AND ON DECK THERE IS BUILT IN ANTI-SLIP WITH AN ANCHOR LOCKER AT THE BOW WITH 2 ANCHORS AND CHAIN AND TWO HANDRAILS ON TOP TO MAKE IT SAFER TO GO FORWARD WHEN ANCHORING. IN THE COCKPIT THERE IS PLENTY OF ROOM FOR 4 OR 5 PEOPLE AND THE TILLER LIFTS WHEN NOT BEING USED LEAVING MORE SPACE. THERE ARE WIND, DEPTH AND LOG INSTRUMENTS AND A COMPASS THAT HAS WATER IN IT AND WOULD EITHER NEED MENDING OR REPLACING. AT THE BACK OF THE COCKPIT ON THE PORT SIDE IS THE COVERED OUTBOARD MOTOR WELL AND THERE IS A LARGE STORAGE COMPARTMENT FOR FENDERS ETC JUST FORWARD OF THAT.UNDER THE BACK PART OF THE STARBOARD SEAT IS THE LARGE PLASTIC FUEL TANK. THE SAILS ARE ALL GOOD. THERE IS A FURLING HEADSAIL THAT COULD DO WITH A CLEAN WHERE IT HAS BEEN ON THE BOAT. THE MAINSAIL HAS SLAB REEFING AND ALSO A SAIL COVER, IT ALSO HAS A NICE SPINNAKER WITH POLE. HERE IS THE CHANCE TO GET A VERY NICE YACHT THAT NORMALLY SELLS BETWEEN £5000 FOR ONE NEEDING WORK TO OVER £7000 IN GOOD CONDITION. SHE IS IN PENARTH MARINA ON THE HARDSTANDING AND THE STORAGE IS PAID UNTIL THE END OF MAY. SHE CAN BE KEPT WHERE SHE IS OR THE MARINA CAN EITHER LAUNCH HER OR LIFT HER ON TO TRANSPORT (APPROX £145).IF YOU DECIDED TO KEEP HER IN PENARTH, YOU HAVE THE BENEFIT OF SAILING IN THE SHELTERED WATERS OF CARDIFF BAY OR ACCESS TO SOME OF THE BEST SAILING WATERS IN THE UK, BUT WHEREVER YOU DECIDE TO KEEP HER, IF YOU ARE LIKE ME, IT IS NICE JUST SITTING ON HER IN A MARINA OR MOORING AND HAVING A DRINK WHILE WATCHING THE SUN GO DOWN, THERE REALLY ISN’T A BETTER WAY OF RELAXING IT OBVIOUSLY ISN’T A BRAND NEW BOAT AND AS WITH ALL BOATS IT WILL NEED LITTLE BITS DOING AND HAS SOME MARKS ETC, BUT NOTHING THAT WOULD TAKE MUCH TIME TO DO. THE ELECTRICS AND THE INSTRUMENTS WILL NEED CHECKING AND TIDYING UP, BUT IT IS A VERY SIMPLE SYSTEM. THE REMOVABLE PLYWOOD FLOOR THAT JUST SITS INSIDE NEEDS REPLACING AS IT HAS CRACKED AND BROKEN AND THE REAR BUNK NEEDS A NEW BIT OF SUPPORT WOOD PUTTING IN WITH A NEW PLY BUNK BASE (ONE SHEET OF 12MM PLY AND YOU CAN MAINLY USE OLD THE FLOOR FOR TEMPLATES, AND ANOTHER SHEET FOR THE REAR BUNK ABOUT 3 HOURS WORK IN TOTAL) THERE ARE SOME SELF ADHESIVE WOOD EFFECT FLOOR TILES WHICH ARE READY TO BE STUCK TO THE NEW FLOOR. IT WILL NEED SOME FOAM AND A COVER FOR THE REAR BED THE OUTBOARD LOCKER NEEDS A NEW BIT OF PLY BOLTING TO THE METAL FITTINGS FOR THE OUTBOARD MOTOR (30 MINS) AND YOU MIGHT WANT TO LIGHTLY RUB DOWN THE INTERIOR WOODWORK AND PUT ANOTHER COAT OF VARNISH ON IT. I WOULD GIVE THE OUTBOARD A LITTLE SERVICE AS WELL.PLEASE NOTE THE FIRST PICTURE IS NOT THIS ACTUAL YACHT, IT JUST SHOWS WHAT THEY ARE LIKE SAILING.I HAVE SOME LINKS BELOW THAT GIVE MORE PICTURES OF A GIBSEA 242, SO YOU CAN SEE JUST WHAT A NICE TYPE OF YACHT SHE IS. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE ASK I AM AN HONEST EBAYER AND HAVE DESCRIBED THE BOAT ACCURATELY, BUT I MIGHT HAVE MISSED SOMETHING. SO PLEASE DO VIEW HER. PLEASE CONTACT ME IF YOU WANT TO VIEW HER, I DON’T LIVE LOCALLY BUT CAN CONTACT THE MARINA TO ARRANGE IT. I WOULD LIKE A £200 PAYPAL DEPOSIT ON COMPLETION OF THE AUCTION, WITH THE BALANCE IN CASH WITHIN 5 DAYS WHERE I WILL MEET YOU AT THE BOAT TO GIVE YOU THE MCA BILL OF SALE AND GO INTO THE MARINA OFFICE TO COMPLETE THE OWNERSHIP TRANSFER. IF YOU HAVE LESS THAN 15 POSITIVE FEEDBACK OR CAN'T AGREE TO THE PAYMENT, PLEASE CALL ME BEFORE BIDDING.
WHO EVER BECOMES THE NEW OWNER WILL END UP WITH A VERY NICE BOAT.
