The boat is in the Caribbean in the island of Grenada. Perfect and beautiful spot to start a sailing trip around Cariacou, St Vincent and Grenadines.

I had 2 things planned to do next time I haul out the boat. Change cutless bearing and open/inspect/redo the rudder. First time sailing from Trinidad and Tobago to Grenada Murphy proof his theory again and the rudder breaks. So who buy it have 2 choices:

1) I can sell the boat with the rudder fixed and change cutless bearing as well. Even new bottom paint enjoying we haul out the boat and will be ready to go;

2) Or You buy the boat how it's and I give 10 thousand usd discount and you do it yourself.

If you are really interested come to see the boat and you will see the beauty from 70's. Old style pirate boat.
