Measured the sails and surprise, surprise… they were WAY too small. These sails would fit a 30′ probably. And, they were 2 jibs. Not even a main. Sails are expensive (even used) and if we get this boat it will be a bit of a financial setback.

OMG – Endeavour 40! Center cockpit. 13′ beam. Aft stateroom with private head. MAJOR interior work needed. Is it even a possibility? This sailboat could be a dream come true of sorts. The interior is destroyed. The flooring would need to be replaced, the diesel is shot, the wood needs a severe sanding and water tanks are not installed. This would be a major undertaking but the end result could be a boat that would take us around the world. On the other hand, this is a massive boat! Massive boats mean more costs with repairs, storage and such. Oh, and the 5 foot draft would make exploring a bit more challenging.
34′ Grampian. Good deck space! Interior needs major work. Boatyard master says to make an offer.

34′ Grampian. Good deck space. Interior needs major work. Boatyard master says to make an offer. Though the deck is clean and spacious, it is very narrow. Only a 10′ beam. The cockpit is deep which would be great during rough weather. The interior is full of water, the engine is shot and there is no interior aft space. We weren’t able to view the head due to a few bee nests.
