For Sale: 1984 Aloha 32

[blinkerfluid]

This is a great, well cared for, cruising boat. Designed by Mark Ellis (Niagara and Nonsuch designer), she has the alternate layout with a work bench forward instead of the traditional V-berth. Blue-J has already been around Vancouver Island once, and just returned from a 2 week trip to the Gulf Islands. The boat is in great shape and runs/sails wonderfully. Unfortunately, my wife has decided that, although she likes cruising, she does not like sailing. As such, we're going to sell Blue-J and get a power boat. Blue-J has a recent survey from 09/14 and all the issues found have been addressed. (there weren't many. The surveyor commented on how clean and nicely put together the boat was).

Recent upgrades:
Rebuilt injectors (4/15), new Jabsco head (6/15), new battery bank: 1 starter (group 29) and 3 house (group 31) AGM batteries (4/15), new battery charger (4/15), B&G chartplotter at helm (3/15), Raymarine autopilot (3/15), new Vulcan 12 anchor (3/15), recently reconditioned teak interior and exterior, new zincs on shaft (8/15), flushed cooling system, new impeller, new fuel filters (Twin Racors)

Other upgrades:
Full Iverson enclosure with matching covers, Lectra-san waste treatment system to eliminate the holding tank (no pump outs!), electric anchor windlass, Magma grill, Furuno radar, Espar Airtronic D4 heater with digital controller, Garmin Chartplotter at companion way, Tac-Tic wind instruments, Link 10 battery monitor, Campbell Sailor prop. I'm sure there's much more I'm forgetting, she's a very well outfitted boat.

Hello Blue J,

Are you still waiting for a new owner?

I have a San Juan 24 (moored in Everett Marina) and just came back from the San Juan Islands, and would like to upgrade to a bit bigger boat.

Would it be possible to arrange a time to view the boat?

Waiting for a favorable answer,

Hyeh-Yeon

She is still available. I'll send you a PM and we can work out a time for you to come see her.

I PM'd you for boat location.

New Price: $35k.

Most likely going to list the boat with a broker in 2 weeks if she doesn't sell before then. I'd much rather sell her myself and save the commission fees though.
