Always loved those Van der Stadts. Beautiful boat. Some people might inquire about the hull thickness that you probably checked when you did the full-down paint. Have you had it long?

[boatman61]

Have yet to have the hull thickness done..
Could not get that info from the OP.. who had the paint job done before deciding to sell her..
Owned her since Feb.. she's more boat than I need..
Spend 7-9 months away on deliveries sailing others boats and it seems a waste her sitting at the dock..

Lovely boat. Would you deliver?

Sorry, couldn't resist.

Funnily enough, our steel boat's in Nazare (just down from Fig da Foz), we're currently in Adelaide visiting my folks, and a delivery skip mate of mine could do the trip for not a huge amount of $$.

What a small world.

To the OP - good luck with the sale, those VDS' have an excellent reputation. Getting the hull thickness done is a pretty easy job by a steel boat surveyor; Nazare is only a day sail away to haul out if a prospective buyer wants to see the bottom (140EUR to haul out as of Sep '15).
