| Baymaster with sails and trailer |
|
| Very shippy looking little boat with small cabin and large cockpit. Will float in less than a foot |
I bought my first Baymaster 18 in about 1973. I had a small sailboat dealership and thought this would be
a good addition to my line of boats. It proved to be a very good boat and i personally sailed several versions for my own
pleasure. This boat i have for sale now was made in about 1973 and i bought it about three years ago to mess around with and
try to restore it to sailing condition. I have been working off and on for about three years doing little knick knack things
but have never sailed it. I painted it with a roller and latex house paint on the hull and it looks pretty good but i've never
had it in the water so i don't know if all the paint is going to fall off when it gets wet. i put new tires and wheels on
the trailer and some bearing buddies but i don't think i replaced the wheel bearings so a buyer would have to check that.
also the rigging is all original. email me if you are local and would like to come by and have a look.. the price is $1400
for boat and trailer and main and jib sails.
I bought this Southcoast 26 new in 1977. It has been in the water ever since except for the move
from Grapevine to Ray Hubbard when i took a few weeks and cleaned it up a bit and repaired a few little things. That was in
about 1991 or so. It has never had a bottom job. No that's right.. never had one. Please don't contact me and start arguing
about how dumb that is.. i was probably sailing boats before you were born and even if I wasn't I have owned hundreds of boats
and can make those kinds of decisions backed by thousands of hours fooling with all kinds of boats.. I will certainly respect
your decision not to buy this boat if that is a problem for you.. you may be right.. it might just sink to the bottom tomorrow..
but probably not.... maybe the next day. I think the boat shows very nice for it's age and the absolute absence of maintenance
of any kind.. but that's one of the great things about this boat. The price is $3900 without a motor. there is no trailer.
you can not pull the boat out of the water and inspect it. It is however available for inspection at the dock by appointment..
i'm pretty flexible timewise and can show it most nice days.
