[SOLD] 35' Bristol sloop $1000

[over40pirate]

Yes, you read it right. $1000.
I have my 1971 Bristol sloop, on the hard in my back yard, and she has to go.
Brief discription:
Good sails (New main sail) roller furling, wheel steering, elec. windlass, multi anchor bow roller, anchors and rode, Auto pilot, Propane stove (3 burner, oven, broiler) H&C pressure water, Perkins 4-107 diesel.

Boat needs complete painting, upholstery, and other tlc.

This is a big opportunity or someone who wants to go cruising on the cheap.

Wow.....

Good thing we're not in the market. We love Bristols and are suckers for a project.

Good luck finding a good home for her. I hope there is someone that will take her on and give her a second wind.

I hope to find someone on the forum. I forgot to mention, it's an easy boat to sail solo.

If I was 20 years younger and wanted to go cruising, I would be all over this one.

She is 1/2 mile from local marina. Moving from my yard to marina runs about $400.

Here's a deal for someone. I'm getting ready to list my acre of property, with 2 houses, for sale.

Thinking, I would be happy selling, without a broker, for $200000.
So you buy the places. Live in the smaller one. Rent the larger one for $1200/mo.
Finish the boat, and rent the smaller house for $750/mo, and GO CRUISING!

I forgot to mention the boat is in Englewood, FL

Please post pictures- I am VERY interested. Is there a trailer or could it be sailed as is? I'm in the Mobile AL area looking for a good boat to work on and then cruise on.

Hi, I am in Toronto Canada. I am a US citizen. If I buy it can I live on it for a month at you location while doing initial evaluation of needed upgrades, and work before moving to dry dock for completion?
cheers

I would need for you to have insurance to live on or work on the boat at it's location. There are a couple of DIY yards, very close to the boat, that are reasonable. Marine supply stores as well.

I am in Port Charlotte and am interested in your sloop. Do you have pictures? when could I come take a look at it? Is there a trailer?
Thanks

[portsmouth]

I would be interested in taking a look at your boat. Can you please provide contact information. Which part of southwest, FL?

Thank you.

[gypsea67]

I might be interested in the whole package...land, buildings and boat. I don't want to step on toes...How does one contact another on this forum? Do you give email addresses? Telephone numbers? ....or what?

Good Morning
Is she still available? I'm very interested. Thanks.

[KnotCrazy]

What is the address? Google earth is a cool way to take a look. We are shopping in the area.

[1HappySailor]

I will be driving near Englewood and would like to see your Bristol. Definitely am interested in her.
Any chance Thursday or Saturday? Possibly Friday but I am not sure of my family's schedule that day.

Please send me contact info and address via my below email. Pictures also would be nice.
