Comments and Notes
May 2001 survey valued the boat at $150,000.00 and is available for review. BOSE AM/FM/CD/Home Entertainment stereo system is a negotiable item and can be left behind under the right circumstances and price. This system is wired into the TV/VCR to provide surround sound stereo in the salon. Propane heater (Force 10 Slimline) has a custom heat distribution system. Custom propane storage locker installed outside and all new LPG hoses run in 2000. Centerboard has been locked into the "up" position but can be restored to full functionality if desired. However, Mars Metals of Canada has designed a new keel for this boat that can be installed eliminating the need for the centerboard. Their modification eliminates the centerboard and applies winglets to the existing keel to maximize performance without adding draft. Design specs available if desired.
