CRUISING BOAT AND TRAILER $52500 obo located on Lake Michigan's western shore.
1986 CS36T Canadian Sailcraft. 4'11" shoal draft. 52'10" air draft. Moderate design by Ray Wall of Camper/Nicholson. 11'6" beam and 15500 displacement. Specs can be had on the internet on this well respected cruiser.
20 years under my ownership and many upgrades including: factory new Westerbeke w38B4 diesel engine and Hurth 150v transmission with captain's panel, controls, fuel filters, fuel lines, basically everything from the companionway bulkhead back was replaced new in 1999 and is excellent. Now has 2100 hours. New stainless fuel tank and fill hoses. New hot water heater, rudder packing, sheave bearings, steering cables, rudder packing, exhaust hose, bilge blower etc etc at that time also.
All new standing rigging with sta-loks lower and swaged stem balls upper. Four new sails in '99 three of which are still in like new condition including asymmetrical spinnaker in sock, 150 genoa, storm jib. 100% jib looks great yet but not setting as well as it used to (has years of service left in it). Foresails are hank on. Main needs leech covering but is still sound and has three reef points led aft. Lazy jacks. New running rigging also in '99.
New Natty dodger from Genco marine in '99 along with complete custom enclosure in '12 in green tweed sunbrella. New davits in 2005 from stainless outfitters.
Refrigeration by grunert is a 12v system. New stainless steel force 10 three burner propane stove and oven. Last year I replaced the fresh water pump (shurflo) and added an anchor washdown pump at the same time. This boat carries 100 gal fresh water and has a 40 gal holding tank. New raritan head in'99 rebuilt in '13.
Replaced all cabins' bulbs and anchor light with led. 35 CQR with 35' chain, new 200' rode in '12, 33 bruce with 35' chain, new 200' rode in '12 and aluminum fortress fx55 storm anchor. All new coated lifelines in '99. New in '12 four 6volt golf cart batteries for main bank (440 amp hours) plus new starter battery. Smart regulator by balmar and 90 amp alternator new in '13. New Navico wp500 wheel pilot in '99 with complete backup unit.
Not a lot of electronics but I did add furuno radar new in '99. Set up for practical cruising and just completed the great loop and bahamas in '13.
Last but not least the boat is on a freeway-ready 25000lb gvw four axle trailer with brakes on all four axles. Customizing this new in '95 factory trailer cost $1500 not including the price of the trailer. I replaced the wood decking new last year ('13) with treated lumber. Needs nothing and makes working on the boat at your own facility a pleasure. It continues to pay for itself in transportation and storage costs.
Questions will be answered promptly. Coast guard documented and registered in Michigan. This boat is ready go!
