For Sale: Abaco 24 traditional Bahamian sloop, all fiberglass, 30k

[pressuredrop]

1988 Abaco 24', traditional Bahamian sloop, built in fiberglass from a set of molds. A production run was planned but it didn't get off the ground and the first two boats were kept by the builder.

I inherited 'the green turtle', now "turtle sloop" from the original owner/builder in the aftermath of hurricane Dorian where she fell in the boat yard and was holed in 3 places. I patched her up right and built out the interior with cypress and rod rigging hurricane debris, added teak accents outside from salvaged material, added lights batterys and electrical system, a cypress sculling oar, thru hulls glasses up, head removed and replaced with a pantry, and sailed her back to Florida 200 miles with no engine and very dicey rigging

This past year she was given a complete refit and is practically a new boat.

New awlgrip, hull and topsides
Kiwi grip nonskid
Epiphanies varnish on all the teak
New standing rigging
New main halyard
New spin halyard hardware and topping lift.
Replaced bottom foot of mast

Fortress anchor on roller, rope and chain in bag clipped to foredeck.
Original green sails are still functional and being kept alive with sunbrella patches, I also have a set of heavy white Dacron working/cruising sails. 2 sets of reefs on both mains.
Native Casuarina tiller with nice epoxy/varnish work
6hp tohatsu with ~ 50 hrs.

100% dialed in ready to enjoy. Moves well in light air with her spread of canvas and 17' boom. Will very much consider personally delivering her anywhere on the east coast on her own bottom.

Clean Florida title in hand. Asking 30k

Fresh varnish and newly installed raymarine st2000 tiller pilot...
Interior cushions are in the shop being recovered at the moment...
While I still enjoy sailing her on a regular basis I still have too many boats and too little time
