Is the charter option still available. What amount? Where are you located? Thanks, Chris Carwright Palo Alto,CA
:: On the straight sale; boat was surveyed and appraised
:: for new to me marine insurance carrier 4 years ago;
:: $19.500 appraisal that does not include the trailer.
:: With trailer, outboard, is insured $28K.
::
:: I am negotiable, there are minor hull cosmetic needs, a
:: buff job being the primary one.
::
:: This is hull #8 one of two boats Terry Alsberg built for
:: himself. This one sold off and Terry kept Nemo # 9.
::
:: Some paint touch up on three repairs; at starboard aft
:: tail quarter one foot square, at starboard winch,one
:: foot square, at leading edge and trailing edge keel. Or
:: paint the whole keel. Boat hit the bottom in 1996.
:: Repair is solid by Kim Desenberg while at North Coast
:: Yachts. Trailing edge of keel high, 1" sq area that is
:: the very trailing edge finish at top.
::
:: There has never been bottom paint on this boat. It is
:: virgin out of the mold. If the boat is buffed, and I
:: never do to preserve the gel coat, would look shinny
:: new. Getting the boat wet achieves the same result. The
:: boat is a light blue hull with dark blue boot. There are
:: photos on the site.
::
:: The boat does need new nonskid application on deck;
:: $1500 to $2500 depending on who supplies the labor. And
:: needs a new forward hatch but is functional efficeint
:: and water tight.
::
:: Has 4 Barient winchess; 2 #18 two speed primaries that
:: are salvage part maintained. 2 #10 cabin tops new like.
:: Both sets contain new stainless machined paul seats from
:: ACME machine shop in Berkeley.
::
:: For purchase standing rigging to satisfy insurance
:: requisite. Yet all standing rigging is visibly good and
:: includes a new backstay.
::
:: Trailer is capable of short distance but needs new
:: tongue (hydraulic reservoir is gone). All other trailer
:: systems are good; tires, bearings, brakes,hydraulic
:: lines, lights, new refurbished pads, spare tire. For the
:: enthusiast; strip, sandblast and paint will look like
:: new.
::
:: Boat includes:
:: New top and bottom rudder bearings.
::
:: Newly varnished tiller in excellent shape with new cover
::
:: 1998 rig with welded sheave box and a real through rig
:: head stay attach. Universal port and starboard halyard
:: arrangement with kevlar
:: halyards in excellent condition.
::
:: Classic spreaders with excellent spreader bars.
::
:: All slots have internal backing plates which no other
:: rig in the fleet has.
::
:: Custom indestructible goose neck
::
:: Custom head stay stem fitting with thwart ship under
:: deck backing plate that ties the head stay fitting into
:: the toe rails. The boat is rigged for ocean proof in
:: gale conditions.
::
:: All stainless fastners into AL rig treated with anti
:: seize for bolts in engine block, most everything will
:: come apart.
::
:: Rig needs minor inspection, take apart base, inspect
:: internal shoe and reapply anti sieze.
:: Boom with no holes, three sheave end boom turining box
:: works but its something I've wanted to replace.
::
:: Out haul and reef line that are not Gucci but adequately
:: functional.

:: damaged buoy race boat down below.
::
:: Reinforced main bulkhead upgrade that is the most
:: durable overkill in the fleet; The boat structurally
:: built up for ocean racing into gale force.
::
:: The boat is absolutely solid.
::
:: Chains plate attach is dry and solid shinny hard through
:: bolt holes; might need minor forward fix where fender
