1977 GULFSTAR 37' Aft Cockpit Masthead Sloop for sale - or trade.
It's time to move on for me, maybe with another, slightly smaller
boat if the opportunity comes along, or
buying a boat back in
Europe, where I live. Flying back and forth across the pond isn't working out for me anymore.
I bought this
boat in early 2014 and added a lot of
gear and basically turned it from a total
project boat into a good
caribbean cruiser. Sailed it around for two years and invested $60-70k in upgrades and
maintenance. This boat was designed and built when Vince Lazarra, the owner of
Gulfstar Yachts, after building crappy motorsailers and sailboats eventually teamed up with Ted
Hood and let him draw good
boats. Built sturdy.
Mast is
keel stepped.
2015/16: New topside and
bottom paint. New day tank 15 Gal. New
Garmin touchscreen
Chartplotter and
Garmin HD
radar combo (not in the pictures yet, brand new). New
AIS transceiver with separate
antenna. New SS
gear /
radar pole with Garhauer
outboard lift. New 4x 100W flexible Renogy
solar panels with
MPPT charge controller. All new
bronze thruhulls and seacocks.
2014: 4 x new Trojan 6V Golf cart
batteries. New
DSC Standard Horizon Explorer
VHF, new
wiring and
antenna. New
Raymarine multi function display with new
instruments and transducers (depth, temperature, speed, masthead wind) with interconnected NMEA2K
network. 6 x new
cabin fans.
Gypsy Spirit has a V berth, a two-door acessible
head with
shower and
pump head, two extendible
salon berths, a U-shaped
galley with
compressor fridge, double sink and a three burner force 10 stove/oven.
The port and starboard
cockpit lockers are so big and deep you could turn them into full berths as a big
project. The boat's layout is ideal for a couple as is now.
All
interior lights are warm white LED, some of them red/white combo lights.
Raymarine 4000
wheel drive
autopilot.
Perkins 4108 paper-rated 50hp
diesel engine with 2500 hours, starts on the first touch.
Comes with an older APEX
RIB Deep V with an Yamaha 15 horse
2 Stroke and lot's of cruising gear.
I of course hold the title. The boat is in
Miami now, but may be moved to Floridas
West coast in July.
Price tag is $35k, and I would
trade for a smaller 35ish boat if in good condition.
