1996 Freedom Yachts 35, 4’ 6” Draft

Selling my 1996 Freedom Yachts 35, Sol Mate. This vessel is equipped with the desirable shallow draft winged keel. I have owned this vessel since 2016 and have invested thousands in upgrades, in order to travel anywhere.

A partial list includes: Simrad 4G Radar, B&G Zeus 3 that includes underwater sonar, Custom $7,000.00 aluminum arch / dinghy davits with elevated seating, Vesper WatchMate AIS, Iridium GO, New 600 watt solar system, EPIRB, Fresh bottom paint, 2021 Dinghy & Motor, etc.

Now is your chance to save on an extremely well outfitted boat. Everything works but the Dodgers canvas will need replacement. This is something I had planned to do when visiting a port with reasonable labor rates.

Any questions, feel free to ask. I am currently located in Central America and the vessel is located in Fort Pierce, Florida. Looking for a quick sale at $59,500. I will accept cash, vehicles, land, crypto, etc. Please message with your contact info for quickest response.

The arch is a work of art! Love the built in seats. If I was looking, I'd be in touch.

That’s a steal even pre covid. Awesome boat, expensive upgrades. Someone is going to get lucky.

Re: 1996 Freedom Yachts 35, 4’ 6” Draft

Thank you for the kind words everyone. The arch was a labor of love and involved a lot of designing. That said, I couldn’t be happier with the results. I originally paid $80K and invested another $30K-ish. I have not kept up with the market, so I may have under priced it somewhat. The long and the short of it is I simply cannot bare leaving her in a slip and seeing no use. I’m more than happy to discuss the vessel with serious buyers.

Unfortunately, I am unable to relocate this vessel to my new country of residence. I am serious about moving this boat so have now dropped the price to a good buy at $54,500. You will not find a better equipped boat for the money.

Hi and great looking boat! I was just wondering what is your solar setup, how many panels, your controller, what kind of inverter, do you have a generator backup (ie Honda 2200 etc)?

It is still available. A couple of the upgrades I forgot to mention are the over 200’ of stainless rode and the Feathering Kiwiprop. Thank you

Price reduced again! $45,000. I wish this deal was available when I was in the market. There is literally too many upgrades to list with a ton of spares. Everything goes, right down to the silverware. You literally need to bring nothing but your swim trunks and passport. Recently recovered cockpit cushions not pictured.

This is not a junk boat pieced together. Very well designed and laid out. This is a very firm, and more than fair, price. If the vessel does not sell in the next 30 days, I will will place with a broker. Don’t miss out on an incredible deal. Possible live aboard with a transferable slip for less than you spend on gas for a month.

Re: 1996 Freedom Yachts 35, 4’ 6” Draft

If you are serious about a land swap, I am currently trying to liquidate my property in Deep Creek Lake MD Need to get rid of it to purchase a boat. I paid a similar amount for the lot in an exclusive subdivision located in McHenry, Md. The Freedom 35 is on my list. If interested in a swap please send reply to:
