hello all
well last time I posted, it was about a cheoy lee midshipman 40 ft sailboat..... was ready to close the deal on it, and while the survey was being done, the owner sold it without even a chance for me.... sometimes that happens....
found a different boat.... I found a 1979 Dufour 1200ct 45ft sailboat... in good shape, needs a good cleaning, and a few repairs... for the price, I cannot go wrong.... needs a few system updates.... older man has the boat, he does maintenance to keep things running.... but hasn't updated any equipment for years... the interesting part is, the cockpit is at deck level, and has an aft cabin with a queen size bed...
needs new nav unit, new power inverter, generator, needs new sails, deck, hull and bottom need painting, and a really good cleaning inside and out.... boat has been used to stay on, but not been sailed in a few years... the old man doesn't have anyone to sail with, so he just hangs out on the boat.... I was surprised to see it has a liquor cabinet and fridge...
I made the deal and we are down to signing the paperwork for it....
sincerely
Jess
