As the song says “Dream’n at Heaven's Door” Yes Summer Wind is a 25’ Dream of a Sailboat!
She has been well cared for since 1982 and I have enjoyed sailing her since 2003. She has only been sailed in fresh water and always stored inside during winters! She is a well mannered boat that is simply a pleasure to sail and cruise with friends.
She has everything you need for a wonderful day on the water with family or friends. Plenty of room inside and out with fresh water on board and a porta potty so you can sail in comfort.
She also has shore power hookup, VHF Radio, AM/FM/CD with speakers inside and also in the cockpit. If you choose to day sail for a weekend she can accommodate 4 to 6 people but she is perfect for a couple leaving room on board to live in comfort for several days!
Summer Wind comes complete with a tandem wheel trailer that has a tounge extension for easy ramp launching and also has a mast raising system that allows for only 2 people to raise the mast!
I have also added “Stern Perch Seats” that give the boat a more modern look and allow you to sit at a higher level similar to the new sail boats. www.clrmarine.com/467.html
Sadly, it is time for me to let her go to another owner. I have a busy schedule and I am now down sizing to a boat that can be day sailed and stored in my garage. My loss is your gain!
Please take a look at all of the photos and specifications on my web site and feel free to call or email with questions.
Be sure to watch the quick time movie on the website. It will take a while to download so be patient .... its worth it! You will get to see the boat sailing on a nice windy day on Lake Mendota Madison Wisconsin.
If you buy this boat and are going to be sailing on Lake Mendota, I will help you set her up and show you how she sails!!!
