Thanks all for the kind words on Moe's condition. I have an accepted offer, and waiting for check clearance to sign over the title. Unfortunately Pete, the new owner had to listen to me describe all the systems and on and on....will miss her.

ALL OFFERS CONSIDERED

I have agressively priced, having picked up another boat already. It is bittersweet selling Moe U'Hane,

Solid boat:
Fin keel
Full batten main with upgraded mainsheet traveler
All sails immaculate condition,

link to ads with pictures below

Entertaining ALL offers. Can work out delivery details as negotiation of sale...

Standing rigging inspected and replaced many components, incl brand NEW open turnbuckles and rebedding all deck fittings. NEW through deck elect connection, new mast wiring back to panel. ALL NEW switches on panel (see good old boat thread, C25 section) Sails still in box from servicing. CETOL on companionway hatch and cockpit trim rings.

Help me sell this boat, I want to put attention into the O'Day instead. Will be available for sea trials this weekend (Muskegon, MI)

All offers seriously considered.

http://muskegon.craigslist.org/boa/4011320937.html

155% Genoa, roller bearing furler.
Full Batten Main
BOTH SAILS LIKE NEW CONDITION
L-Shaped table layout
Marine Head
Pop Top w/cover
9.9 Honda o/b
cradle

Look for this to be updated as time passes and i can recall the rest of my "list" The boat was in need of TLC when I bought her, and all systems have been gone through, and she is a solid boat.

2013 Refurbished sails at SailCare (new tell tales, mast slugs, sewn numbers and sunbrella strip blue)
faired keel, 2000 interprotect 2013
VC17 yearly
new boot and sheer stripe
Rebed all stanchions
(undercut coring, fill epoxy, redrill, butyl seal)
Rebed all standing rigging
Replaced factory wiring to mast
Refinished all interior teak (teak oil)
Replace all interior wiring
LED cabin lights
new masthead light
Cetol exterior teak
new open turnbuckles
CD stereo
VHF w/masthead antenna
windex

....much much more
pictures to follow on CL ad.

s/v No Worries, O'Day 28
PO Moe'Uhane - C25 SR/FK #1746

I will work on a craigslist ad tonight, and update my original post with the link, which will have pictures too then. Thanks all, yes, she is coming back in fine form. Not to where I was planning, but enough that she is not the ugly duckling at our marina anymore. Location: Muskegon, MI. Torrenson marina is very close by, we have haul-out capability at our marina. Currently in the water, new sails still boxed and on-board.

well Craigslist brings 4-5 obligatory spam e-mails:
2 asking I e-mail them directly, no other comments
1 asking for a "homie hookup"
and another not quite sure, "sitting in a chair in my living room thinking about your boat" whoa!?

I am heading to the boat this weekend: What pictures do you think are best? What are the big selling points to this group, and to CL groups???

For anyone on this forum, I will include substantial discount on selling price and include the tiller auto-pilot...

patience is a virtue......that I no longer contain. Taking suggestions on sale ad locations (Craigslist already) and Sailing texas pending.

CL seems to bring up spam e-mails phishing for a valid e-mail address to bomb. Too bad really.

Just don't accept any "bank checks" for substantial sums over the asking price, where you are to arrange shipping (to Nigeria) and send back the remainder of the amount. First, the "bank check" bounces (3-4 months later), and both your boat and the money you sent them are gone.

(No, I didn't do it, but I got the offers--three different times when selling boats.)

If the new buyer doesn't want the whisker pole or tiller pilot I'd be interested.

Nice looking boat with many update features. Should go fast.

Father's Day special: Cat25 assoc members take 15% off asking price ($5100!) I would love to see this go to an enthusiastic assoc member.

For a solid boat: fin keel, with full batten main, all sails immaculate condition, fresh bottom, refurb interior. Systems are RIGHT. Some really nice mods incl. full beam mainsheet traveler. She really sails nice.

and again, additional pics available.
call 419 three four four six 2 six one or e-mail imkeene at msn dot com.

Sorry for the slow response. If you've got some pictures of both could you send them to c25 at gbsweather dot com?

Also, if you could list the parts that are missing so I can get an idea of what I will have to source I'd appreciate it.

*ding* back to the top.... I will be working to distribute to additional craiglist and updating prices from 6k to 5.1k on Sailing Texas.

HELP: Any additional non-broker sites??? At this price, a broker would likely not be interested. (unless a brokerage sale is preferred???

Gary: I will also send some pictures, now that vacation is winding down.

So the potential buyer decided health concerns really are closing off sailing to him. Shame as the boat shows well, and he really liked it.

I have reduced price further to peak more interest/calls: $4500, slip negotiable. Bring any offers directly to phone or e-mail. (see linked craigslist ad)

I will be updating as time permits the other ads, just make offer, don't worry about advertised price.

Sorry things didn't work out for you. I honestly have to say that if I didn't already have a boat and I had a trailer for a fin keel boat I'd drive up and buy your boat tomorrow. It is a very nice boat!

Thanks Gary! Texas is a bit of a haul. Anyone have estimates on time to sail the great loop on a C25? That may get close enough to you Gary ;O)
