An Allied Seawind is no Pearson Vanguard. It's far better. I recently sold one
in CA for 41K that doesn't look as good. I have to say that the sailboat market
is out of control as of late, with boats selling for really high prices. Maybe
the gas prices are effecting things. If you have a "wanted" boat, you can name
your price as of late.

Needs.
The bottom needs painting
The main saloon needs new upholstery. We have covers on it. We thought it
would be better to let the buyer choose the fabric and get it done to their
likes. We priced the boat accordingly

The boat was built in 1971 at Minnefords yard in City Island, NY. In 1973 Ted
Turner bought it. The story is, if you can't beat it, buy it! We have a cover
of 1973 Yacht Racing, with Ted at the helm of Lightnin' in some nice wind.
Anyhow, after Ted had it, 2 people owned it before my wife and her x-husband
bought it in 1979. They raced it in the Long Beach and Newport Beach areas for
8 years. Then they had a custom spruce interior put in the boat, and other work
for cruising, and sailed to Hawaii, then back to Portland, Oregon, where she
has been for the last 12 years.

Lightnin' has the safety of an aluminum hull, speed of a racing boat, and the
look and feel of a wood boat below.

The cost to build Lightnin' in 1971, was $100,000

The boat is hauled for storage in Portland, OR, at a private marina, where the
new buyer can paint the bottom, etc. Storage is only $60/mo.

We are asking $54,000 for her. REDUCED TO $42,000 OBO

Minneford's built good boats, and certainly Vanguards were solid boats. A
Vanguard is longer, wider, more room, carries more sail, is very seaworthy and
goes about 25% of the asking price of that particular Seawind.

Besides, the wheel on a Vanguard doe not block the companion way.

he has been trying to push that boat for several years. Even at $42k he can't

Let me ask you sailors, how to value a used sailboat.

I'm the owner of the 38' S&S aluminum sloop. We priced the boat at $54k orig,
then dropped the price to $42k when we moved from OR to FL. The boat needs a
little cosmetic work and a little tlc. If the boat looked like a showroom boat,
we would be asking double the price.
The new broker wants to double the price of the boat, to attract more buyers.
Sometime low prices keep people away. Must be a piece of .... etc.
She really is a strong, safe, and fast boat.
So I ask you captains, what's a fair price for her?
Oh, the reason we are selling her is My boat is in the backyard here in FL (on
the hard) and we don't need 2!

The average buyer does not usually seek out a boat built at Minnefords. They
want a boat people have heard of and one that can be resold.
Pearson Vanguards sell under 20K all the time. They also have a variety of
problems (mostly deck, such as gell peel) along with the Wanderers. The listed
Allied is 10 years newer than the average Vanguard as well.
The reputation of the Allied's is simply higher than the Vanguard. It's public
perception that commands the market.

Jax, the market is far higher now, especially for good name boats. It's
bordering on silly with very high asking prices...and people are paying. Most
of the people I know, who've traded up this year, all made money. Rough times
for the deal seeker who wants a quality boat. My own C&C is worth much more
today than she was just 5-6 years ago.

You have a beautiful boat and she has good history. Your price is more than
fair, but she's a very unique boat that seeks a unique buyer. Most folks want a
"common" boat with a firm value (Pearson, Catalina, Hunter, Island Packet) and
are worried about buying a boat like yours, unless they are well schooled and
want "that" boat.
I wish you the best of luck with her and hope she finds a home soon.

Bunches? There aren't bunches of westsails available. Out of 19 listed on
Yachtworld, just 2 are below 40K and they are older examples. A really nice
Westsail usually commands in the area of 35-45K and more if it's a late 70's or
1980's boat. Smart sellers ask for more and then deal. The Allied 2 will
command mid 30s and up for a nice one. After some very good press on these
boats as classic budget blue water boats, thier price jumped. I had the chance
to buy a good one last year at 32K. I could have made another 10K just by
flipping her, but someone in Whitestone beat me to it and did exactly that.

It's an "asking" price, Jax. If it's a nice enough boat, you work on the deal.
If you owned one of these boats, you'd prefer top dollar as well. No need to
hand over a popular design at a deal price to because someone else needs a
bargain.
I just put a deal together for someone on a C&C 33. The asking price was high
and probably scared off a few folks. Too bad for them because the boat was a
true gem and the owner was willing to deal. In the end everyone was happy.
In my short time selling yachts, I've learned that asking prices are only skin
deep. You don't let them worry you if you want the boat.
Anyway, are you looking for an Allied boat?

No, it was a 1975, completely restored except for the standing rigging and red
awlgrip. Asking was way to high at 39K, but reflected her gear and repower. She
went for 27K because the owner liked my friend's sister! Hey, you use what you
got!

She
went for 27K


I am aware of a decent one that went for $22k recently. Which seems a rather
better deal than a Seawind for $49k asking.

btw, I understand there are Westsail 42's coming asking for less than six
figures today. I don't follow boats of that size once I figured out that
traveling by sailboat needs only a place to sleep really. everything else is
everything else, at least while sailing. anchored for months on end is
something else.

I don't know much about decent boats. This particular C&C 33 was practically a
showpiece, really beautiful and probably worth 40K based on sail inventory
alone. Seawind for 49K asking has little to do with what she'll sell for and if
she's a "gem" with a lot of gear, she may be worth far more than other
examples. A Tartan 37 recently sold for 20K above FMV because of her state of
restoration.
Still, I find the price of sailboats to be steadily increasing for popular
builders. Especially if you want a really nice example that is better than
decent.
