The
Good:

- recent 150% roller reefing/furling genoa (Doyle) with
- Furlex Furler
- Older mainsail still OK.
- Standing rigging OK
- Interior presentable
- No leaks above or below waterline.
- As far as we know boat was never wrecked or had any major repairs done.
- Boat is completely original, no one ever "Updated" original interior and portlights.
- Boat is clean
- copy of survey from August 2004 is available.
- New standing rigging in 2002
- New roller furling in 2002
- New 150% genoa (Doyle) in 2002
- Boat was repowered at some point with a second generation (1973) Atomic 4
- Hull, topsides checked out well in survey for moisture content and delamination.
The Bad:
- deeply crazed gelcoat on topsides
- tired and scratched finish (awlgrip?) on hull
- plexi/lexan in sidewindows crazed
- pretty much all running rigging should be replaced
- no head- I removed the existing
- disconnected FW tank
- No mattresses on forward V berth
- no stove
- wood coaming should be replaced
- original electrical system works but needs updating
Also in the spirit of full disclosure, sure we have some deck core issues, and bedding of liferail stanchion and other hardware issues, but decks decks and cockpit didn't seem to have any soft spots so we didn't worry about it.
I would summarize the boats condition by saying it would be a really good candidate for a restoration, or could be sailed for many more summers in its present condition by an owner who was not concerned about cosmetics(like us).
Boat is in cradle at hopkins boatyard on Vinalhaven (ME). Contact Dan Boxer at danielboxer@yahoo.com. Asking Price : $6000.
