BTW #2 if you're "brokering" boats in the NYC area then you
should know something about this boat. Yep, former boat of Sherry Carter's who's husband Glen died last season. She's finally selling it and will let go for cheap. The engine was replaced two years ago with a rebuild, but she doesn't know it because it blew when he was aboard with Sylvia Wilkenson, Sherry's half sister who was once a Rockette for 2 seasons. I'm not pointing any fingers, but the engine fried after a grounding and Sherry never new the engine was swapped. You do the math. The boat is generally solid, though there are a lot of stress cracks in the cockpit-common for that model. There are also some cracks at the step due to an overtuned rig, but that happened before Glen had it as he was a rigger for Shore Inc. before they went under. The interior is nice, bad bad coffee stain on the starboard settee. Someone etched their name into the aft-starboard port, which is plastic. Glen tried to get rid of it with a red-hot butter knife blade and made a mess of it. It needs to be replaced as it leaks anyway. I refused the boat for brokerage because Glen got drunk aboard Ghost 5 years ago and got fresh with one of the girls half his age. I felt it would be wrong to make money on it after that distasteful event and Sherry is rich from her Home Depot shares anyway. Hope this helps. RB 35s5 NY |
