Want To Buy: Looking for Seaworthy Live-Aboard Sailing Boat

[taucher123]

Hi folks in the marinas,
we looking for a good deal for a seaworthy blue-water cruiser sail boat starting with a size of 42. CC will be ideal and in good condition. Ketch or cutter or sloop.It can be about 40000 to 50000-to-80000 but should be then more or less ready to go (first coastal cruising but the time will come to cross the ocean )

Do you know something that is usable and a good live aboard as well bluewater cruiser? Can be formosa, hudson, hardin, tayana, csy or any other boats that got a good reputation.

I sow a Irwin 52 in Miami but this boat was first looking very nice and after I entered with my surveyor came more and more problems up and finally we have to spend about 120000 with almost do it your self to get it safe back in the water, so I cancelled the deal .
We are a small family and will live the live-aboard dream best starting this week.
We are now in Miami but end of this week we will leave. Maybe and hopefully there are something good boats that's not yet advertised here in Florida
When you know something and we get a deal I will you give a commission for that . (exempt you are a broker off course)


kind regards

Jen

You use Yachtworld, right? Here's a custom search for you. I made it up to 100k because usually you can negotiate 10-20% or more off of asking price.


(Sail) Boats For Sale Florida FL

I know about a C&C 48 Custom in Tortola BVI for sale for $65k that is an excellent serious blue water boat, lots of room and fast to boot. Needs a little upgrading and some additional systems for extended offshore work but a very good deal. Anything you buy for $50-$60k is going to need some work the trick is to find the boat that needs the least amount. Contact me if you want the info.
Cheers, Rourke
