MASSIVE PRICE DROP!

42' Hallberg Rassy 42F, 1996 NOW ASKING ONLY $59,000

Trompeta is a serious all ocean cruise which had a major refit in 2011 prior to participating in the ARC around the World Rally, successfully. She is in relatively good condition and nearly ready for the high seas, however a recent mishap has caused the need for repairs to bring her into top form again.

Re: MASSIVE PRICE DROP!

Is this the vessel for $59,000?

That would be a serious price reduction.

Re: MASSIVE PRICE DROP!

My conversation with the broker was quite informative and if you have time and talent to do some repairs, you could have a nice cruiser. Apparently, this boat was in close proximity of a suspicious building fire where it sustained some heat damage. The interior supposedly is OK.
If this doesn't scare you off, you should contact the broker for a more informed detail.

Thanks for sharing Tortuga's Lie. It must have been on the hard for that to happen I would think.

Re: MASSIVE PRICE DROP!

I believe it was in the water at a slip that was close to the building. The mast wiring is suspect; the sails seem OK but have a few small burn holes and the hull had some heat damage that would need some fiberglass work.
I don't think the broker would mind me relaying this info for it would weed out tire kickers which would waste his time.
These boats are well regarded as fast, stable blue-water cruisers and this one could be a good value if you are willing to put in some time and effort into some repairs.

"however a recent mishap has caused the need for repairs to bring her into top form again. "
The way that most brokers seem to have no time to mention details, reminds me of the old Monty Python routine about the man who buys a (dead) parrot.


"Its DEAD!"
""No it isn't, its only resting.""
