| "Julie" V2537 - Channel Islands Harbor, CA |
Member Paul Hermanson writes:
I have owned the boat for ten years. A previous owner had outfitted the boat
for cruising. A standard joke when I take friends sailing is that something
will need repair and I will rummage around in a lazarette or a locker below and
appear with a replacement part. When asked where I got it the answer is
invariably "It came with the boat!" Sale of the boat will include
everything that comes on the boat. It is a garage full of equipment. In fact
my advice is to do what I did. Empty the boat and then re-stow and label the
location of every imaginable piece of equipment or replacement part. I truly
believe you could literally provision with food and water and embark on a
cruise! I'm mellowing with age and like time share vacations! I can get
my sailing fix by chartering anywhere in the world! Specs and

w/seacocks Engine: Yanmar2GM20 dsl rebuilt
w/80hrs showing 2 years ago I was out solo in weather between Anacapa and
Santa Cruz. My mainsail blew out and a following sea backed up the engine
exhaust. Caught with only a headsail and being blown down the coast I maydayed
and the Coast Guard towed me in. (Rather nice to find that after the
automatic inspection by the Coast Guard my only violation was outdated fire
extinguishers and and emergency flares). Additional addendum: despite my
foolishness "Julie" to care of me. She never felt unseaworthy. I called mayday
as I didn't relish being blown down the coast all night with only my
headsail.
