blue water cruising sail
boat in very good , ready to sail condition. I’ve only owned her for a short time , and my cruising plans have changed.
I bought the
boat from the estate of a gentleman who loved and lavished attention on the boat. She was re-powered with a brand new
Beta marine 14 h.p. fresh
water cooled
diesel less than 2 years ago. It is practically new. He also installed a brand new
Monitor wind vane. It is literally brand new.
She was kept in fresh
water , so the bottom , zincs , and prop are all in fantastic condition.
I recently did a shakedown
cruise during some very high
wind San Francisco Bay Area days , and she performed like a champ. She is an incredible sailing machine.

Blue Fin is ready to sail today. As all boats , there are a few things that could use a little attention before taking off on a long
cruise:
There are 2 Telo ,
self tailing winches in the
cockpit: one is missing the top nut. It still works as it should , but this should be addressed.
All running lights and
electronics are in fine working order , but there is a short somewhere that is keeping the
interior cabin lights from working. I haven’t traced down the short yet … and temporarily
solved the problem by installing some
battery powered
LED lights in the
cabin.
Blue Fin is a wonderful , safe , Blue Water cruiser that is perfect for a
single hander or couple to safely (and QUICKLY!) go anywhere their heart desires.
She is located in Alameda , ca. Right across the bay from
San Francisco. Slip
fees are approximately $290. Per month. The slip is transferable.
Asking
price $13999.
Feel free to call or write with any questions and to set up a time to come see her.
