So what's wrong with Far Cove that makes you want to sell it?


Far Cove is a pretty nice example of a Catalina 36. It's been well cared for and
updated. What's your problem? Druid has already answered your question in depth
earlier. The boat no longer suits his needs, and he is downsizing.

Thanks for the support, Charlie! But in fairness, he may not have seen my
earlier posts.

Yes, the decision is a financial one: I'm feeling I could have just as
much fun in a 28-footer as in a 36 that was originally bought mainly as
a liveaboard. As for "well cared for"... This weekend is dedicated to
removing the last of 20yrs of "stuff", and replacing the old, smelly,
dirty cabin sole with $200/sheet teak-and-holly plywood. And if the
weather cooperates: cleaning, sanding and Cetol-ing the outside teak for
the first time in about 10 years...

But the ENGINE sure is shiny!
