Fiberglass hull, sail-ready, go-anywhere cruising ketch. Asking $70,000, or best reasonable offer. This is a beautiful, traditional, sea-kindly design, and a comfortable
liveaboard with lots of
storage space.
"September" is complete and sailed regularly on
Puget Sound. She is easy to sail and often
single handed.
She can be seen
on the hard in Port Townsend for the rest of the
winter.

The engine is a
Volvo MD3-B, 37 HP. I've spoken to other Ingrid owners and have heard of anything from 30 to 50 HP being adequate. There's even an electric VIXEN- Atkin design similar to the INGRID- at the
Boat Haven in Port Townsend.
Re: the
wiring; the first projects we did in 2006 were new wiring from the
batteries to new
fuses and a battery selector switch; and new wiring to a critical circuit subpanel with new wiring to three
bilge pumps, the
VHF, and the
anchor light. When we installed the windlass 4 years ago, we installed new 4-o welding cable from a new circuit breaker to the windlass with new wiring to all controls.
When we worked on the mainmast 2 years ago, we pulled all new wire from new switching to the new masthead, new tricolor and new LED deck lights. We also ran new wire to the running lights. It's accurate to say that all critical circuits are now done with new tinned copper stranded wire and appropriately sized. The existing circuit breaker panel is neatly done and working well. but 40 years old.
