GOOD DAY FOLKS,
Yesterday I found a small sailboat on Kijiji advertised in the free section.
I called the
storage facility that had re possessed the
boat due to the owner not having paid his
storage fees.
I found that not only was the yard where the
boat is located only 30 mins north of where I live but it is the same yard that I had bought my Bayfield 32c about 5 years ago.
I jumped in the truck to see what condition this free boat was in.
To my surprise it turned out to be a rough but structurally sound little
pocket cruiser.
It is roughly 18-20ft in length with a fair beam. It has a
Centerboard keel, spacious
cockpit and surprisingly functional
interior with two full length berths forward (split v berth) a small
galley /
navigation table on both port and starboard sides with two full length quarter berths on both sides running underneath the
cockpit seats.
I went back to the office after inspecting the boat and paid for a month of storage fee's ($30) and wrote up a bill of
sale.
My plan for the boat is to do a full
restoration and use the boat as a
pocket cruiser for the
great lakes.
My only issue is I have no idea what kind of boat this is, which is a first for me as I normally can identify a boat's manufacture from
buying and browsing boats for so many years.
If anyone can tell me what kind of boat I have here it would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers.
