For Sale: 2007 Jeanneau 42DS - $135k

[SVPortal]

We have decided it is time to sell our sailboat when we return from the Bahamas this year, so I am posting it here first. Price listed is a no broker commission price. If interested please PM me. I am not going to post interior photos at this time since we are still in the Bahamas living on the boat, but will send them to interested parties.

Amadeus V spent the first 12 years of life as a lightly used summer cruiser on the fresh waters of Lake Champlain, NY. In 2019 the current owners sailed south and have spent two seasons in the Bahamas, with the boat being hauled out for hurricane season in North Florida. Having only spent 13 months in salt water, she has much less corrosion and wear as compared to other vessels of the same age. She is well equipped for life on the hook, with a large solar array to provide power and oversized ground tackle to hold fast during a blow.
860 watts of solar combined with a LiFePo4 battery bank and 2500 watt inverter means that cold iced drinks and hot showers daily are possible without running an engine.

Was a really well listed honest evaluation from a real boater. Had to sell upon reading it.
