Although the current bid is below 5k the reserve amount has not been met. Even if you have the high bid you still have to meet the reserve to get the boat. Sometimes the seller will divulge the reserve amount but it's rare. It's a lot simpler when there's a buy it now price.

Jeanneau Arcadia Sailboat 1985 | eBay



and I'm still not ready

That's just 2 hours south of me... Timing is bad as I am headed to the DR Monday. Assuming it doesn't sell at auction maybe I can take a ride down to look it over when I return. I'll save the sellers email and reach out when I get back. Any idea of an approximate cost to have the boat moved to the coast, say 150 miles or so?

Looks like this Jeanneau has been for sale since at least October. $8k or $7.5k asking depending on which ad:

Jouet 1040 MS 36' Motorsailor

LOA = 36 feet
Draft = 5 feet
Year = 1981
Location = Clear Lake Shores Texas (Houston area) 77565 zip
Asking Price = $13,500
Condition = See sale listing info
_______________

Steady's Notes:
This particular boat caught my eye because it is a pilothouse motorsailor I had not seen before. It has a nice inside steering position. While I don't know more about this boat, it does seem to resemble or probably was designed to compete with somewhat similar Southerly boat about the same size. I happen to like a pilothouse boat, and consider an inside steering position to be a plus for a boat, especially if one intends to use the boat in cold water locations (e.g. PNW).

As I have written before: I have NO financial connection to this seller. I am simply sharing this info on a boat I find interesting that may appeal to CF Members who are looking for a boat in this price range (Less than $30K).

Looks lovely but they admit the rot easily seen in the plank ends near the stern so could well be more trouble than she's worth!

[Kenatsea]

Agree this needed a bump. This thread has guided me in finding my new (to me) sailboat. I found it indirectly from this thread!

I'll be stating a new thread "Seeking advice, corrosion mitigation"

Thank to all whom contributed...bravo!
