Hi all,
I have been around here for years. Almost 3 years ago I bought my first
boat. Despite all the reading I had done before the
purchase on how to buy a
boat in the end I followed my gut and bought the second boat I looked at. She is a 1983 Custom 30 built in Western
Australia. That is pretty much all I know. The boat was in good condition as I did not want a
project boat (I had just finished renovating the house for 9 months and had enough of hard physical Labour, at least for a while). I am only the third owner and the previous owner bought her after
retirement from his navigator job in the
Navy. He took really good care of her but she needed upgrades and I was on a steep
learning curve. Still am - of course. She has a 2003 28hp 3 cylinder
Volvo which I know now better than I had planned.
Anyway, does anyone know more about the yacht,
designer,
builder and specs? I know the incredible braintrust this site is. Thanks for reading thus far!
