Hi, Rick! A couple of things I noticed:
• In photo #2, it appears that the fixed side windows have been framed with
something. Better view in photo #10.
• In photo #3, to bow pulpit looks like it’s been bent quite a bit to port.
Better check the mounting feet for leaks or glass issues.
• Photo #7: the steering pedestal has been replaced, and the engine controls
switched over to the Edson dual-lever controls; a nice upgrade.
• Also photo #7: a new pedestal guard and pod for the chartplotter, to go with
the new pedestal. Also a nice upgrade.
• Photo #12: this boat has the starboard nav station with the “double”
quarterberth to port; from the breaker panels, it looks like original
electrical, so may need some work there.
• Photo #22: agreed on the mini-fridge — ack!
• Photo #25: interesting, my boat has teak ceilings on either side of the
v-berth, as well as in the quarterberths. What’s that weird cream-colored
stuff in this boat?
From the specs:
• Agreed on the engine re-power — if done well, it’s a nice upgrade.
• Also agreed on the stainless holding tank — not a good idea.
• Where are they fitting in 135 gallons of water?? Mine came standard with a
bow tank, as well as tanks under each of the saloon settees, for a total of 105
gallons. I’d have him recheck this number; it seems suspect. The holding and
fuel tanks seem a bit generous, too, considering that the holding tank is
probably under the nav station seat.
• This does look a LOT more like a 1979 than a 1981.
That’s what I see for now.
