Nice boat, I delivered a Starwind 27 a long time ago. It was a terrible trip !
Quick story - my wife and I were
living aboard our
Catalina 27, I was working for a yacht
broker. He would offer us easy deliveries now and then. We were bringing the Starwind from Fernandina back to
Jacksonville. It was SUPPOSED to have had the bottom cleaned. That didn't happen. But we went for it anyway, we were young. Came around a turn on the
ICW and had the
wind and
current against us, basically not making progress. This was in January and I really didn't want to but we anchored and I stripped to my skivvies and by hanging on the ladder on the stern I was able to reach under to the prop with my knife and scrape off most of the
barnacles. It was enough to do the trick and we finished the
delivery. That
water was Freezing !!!
As I
recall we got $100. Lol. The things you do when you're young !!!
Have fun, its a fine boat for what you want.
