For Sale!

Yes, I am serious.  It has been a tough decision, but we are selling to go to a bigger boat.  All of our research and work on Yumsuch does not make up for the fact she is just a little too small.  I think it is more due to the fact I still have to work and am down in the cabin 5 days a week with all of my stuff strewn all over the salon table.

Also, when you use her for weekends and a few weeks out of the summer, you spend most of your time in the cockpit.  The large cockpit, storage and our over sized enclosure is why we bought this boat.  Once you live aboard, you find a lot of your time is spent below.  We still have plenty of storage and all of my mods have her equipped with every creature comfort.  We do not regret buying this boat.  She was perfect for the past 11 years and was the right size to be economical when using her on only weekends..

But, the decision is made.  We are meeting with a broker in St. Augustine next week, but if anyone knows a person interested, it will be cheaper without a broker in the middle.  Asking price is $125K right now.

Just to answer everyone's critique of no diesel.  The broker says that he gets a lot of calls with people looking for an electric boat.  That it is only $15K to stick a diesel back in and the new carbon rig far outweighs the lack of the diesel.  He said a real sailor is who will buy the boat.

Have a buyer?  Email or call. We'll keep yo updated with our new boat search.
