For Sale: Beautiful 55ft Bluewater Tayana Sloop

[jv2798]

I am listing my beloved SV Ruach, in case anyone want to snap up a great deal, as a result of Covid. She is lying in Phuket Thailand. I used to work in Thailland until March 2020 where I got stranded in the US and ended up permanently relocating. I am waiting for the next Cargo ship put her on if she doesn't sell, but I will also offer her at at a low price as plan B. I've attached a PDF here with the details. Asking price is US $200K (for walk-off walk-on everything inside (see list below), less a few personal effects I'd like to recover if possible (pics, etc). This would be a person-person sale price. If buyer uses a broker then broker fees are born by buyer.

Brand new inflatable SUP
2 sets of scuba gear with 4 tanks in good condition
All new utensils and cookware from Ikea
Nespresso machine
Ukelele
Several action cameras
all new bed coverings, pillow, and blankets.

Major Improvements since 2017:
New Epirb
New Tender with 30HP Yamaha OB
New 6-man Life raft
New Standing Rigging
New Halyards
Interior refit of the saloon and galley
New headliner throughout with energy efficient LED lighting (nice and bright)
New 12v fans throughout
New waterproof handheld VHF
Lots of little portable LED lights, handy at night
New Master cabin memory foam mattress
New above-deck Sunbrella cockpit and desk cushions
New Sunbrella sun awning from bow to Stern
New Mainsail
New Bimini and dodger in Sunbrella
New matching boom-attached sail cover
New Thru-hulls and strainer
New high-capacity house battery bank, and heavy duty engine cranking battery

Both engine and Genset have been regularly serviced and run great.
All other systems fully functional and well serviced.

The last get-ready-for-cruising jobs I had were:
- to update the instruments. The navigation units are functional Raymarine products and the radar and UHF radio are functional but old school. I was going to replace with a new all-in one system, but the boat is sail-ready without it.
- New water maker for long passages

We sailed a 55 for 11 years and 40,000 nm…she took care of us in a F10 off New Zealand…20 ft waves and she sailed like a lady under autopilot.

A great blue water boat!

I watched the video you posted some time ago when I was first getting interested in boats and sailing! It is one of the reasons I decided I wanted to sail. I wish I could afford her. Best of luck selling her!
