Thanks Thom,
yep, I think it'll do me well. Could use a bit more headroom (5'10") but
I'll live with it!

Thanks Jon,
what are the odds of both of us finding out boats in the same month?

Congratulations, It's a beautiful boat! It looks like a perfect choice.

Yeah, isn't it odd how that website keeps coming up errors?
Just keep clicking on the link though, and the target usually works after
about 6 tries. Geez!

I hope your new boat is more reliable than your server. :-0~ I just
now managed to log on because
it's been overloaded or something. Anyhow, the boat looks good. I don't
know if I could go with an
electrical keel lift. It's bound to burn out or jam at the worst of times.
Is there a way to hand crank
it up and down if your battery goes dead? And, the price of Seawards is
just too rich for my blood.
Sort of like Island Packets. You pay way too much for what you get.

Cheers,
Ellen

Nice looking boat! Did you find a used one or are you
buying new? Trailer? Wheel or tiller?
Did you sail one, how was it? Where are you going to
keep
her? What's the towing weight?
I see the beam is 8'4'', that's good!
Can't wait to see her,

Scotty


Thanks Scotty (and everyone else for the congrats!) I'm
high as a kite right
now and can't wait can't wait can't wait to get her in the
water!

This boat is perfect for me, sound enough for some coastal
adventures,
dainty enough for some serious gunkholing. Towing weight
is somewhere around
6K, per the current owner (not verified). But I'm pulling
with a Dodge Ram
2500, 5.9L so I'm not too worried. And, I'll probably keep
it in a slip for
much of the season. While I have my father around, I'll
probably keep it
near him (South Jersey shore). Eventually I'll replant in
the Chessy. In the
meantime, I'll be dropping her in and feeling my way
around in your waters.

Anyway, it's a 2004, here's the list of options provided:

Wheel steering
Lazy jack system
Trailer, galvanized steel, tandem axel, surge brakes
Yanmar diesel, 2GM20, 18 hp, heat exchanger cooled
Wheel steering
Self-tailing Andersen sheet winches
Dodger
Bimini
135 genoa with luff tape
Schaefer Snapfurl headsail furling unit
Headsail sun cover, sewn on, Sunbrella (navy blue)
Stainless opening ports with screens (8)
Teak privacy door on head compartment
Deluxe fabric on interior cushions
ST40 Bidata Depth/Speed sounder with alarm, pedestal
mounted
ST40 Wind with masthead windvane, pedestal mounted
ST40 Compass, pedestal mounted
Standard Horizon Fixed VHF radio with masthead antennae
Standard Horizon RAM mic remote VHF in cockpit
Saturn compass
Ceramic marine head with holding tank
Origo single burner non-pressurized alcohol stove
Shore power, includes cable
Hawspipes, stainless
Stern rail with seats (cat perches, 2)
Cockpit cushions, closed cell foam, textalene fabric,
light beige color
Boarding ladder
Transom weatherboards, used to close transom when
necessary
Battery charger, 3 stage, 20 amp, 3 bank
Starting battery, group 24 with box
House battery, group 24 with box
Mast raising system
Mast crutch
Mainsail cover (navy blue)
Bottom paint
Bilge pump with ice box drain


Sounds really great! Where is she lying and how'd you find
her?

I was going to ask about the open stern, but now I see
you've got boards.

Does that mean that the ice box drains into the bilge?

Is there a manual back up for the dagger board?

It needs a tractor/trailer. It's too wide to be legal on a
regular little trailer.


Well, DUH !

Yay....especially now that we'll be at the same marina....Chanteuse is
going back in the last weekend of September...we're painting her bottom
next Saturday and I have to stuff all her accouterments back on (was
afraid of mildew over the summer...even with the moisture pots and fan)

Apparently pretty good. :-)
