1983 tall rig hull # 3744

 "Silver Girl" 

Location: Staten Island, New York

She's a one owner boat which I purchased new in 1983. Since I recently retired, I'd like to travel for a year and then return to sailing with a larger boat suitable for off shore passagemaking.

Silver Girl has been sailed in salt water, but has absolutely no corrosion and is a capable, seaworthy pocket cruiser.

She has absolutely no hull blisters.

"Silver Girl" is in very nice condition and is looking for a new family to enjoy her and take care of her.

It's like selling a member of the family.

Asking $5000 for her.

* Lead fin keel/stainless keel bolts

* Catalina Direct Balanced Rudder; provides fingertip control, a great improvement over original design.

* Stainless steel spreader sockets

* 9.9 1997 Johnson Sailmaster; bought new as leftover in 2000, runs great, looks new

* Pop top with enclosure

* Standard Horizon depth and knot meters

* Standard Horizon USA VHF

* Wilcox Headmate porcelain marine head with holding tank and Y valve for overboard discharge for offshore. Upgraded hoses, absolutely no head odors; ever.

* Dual batteries

* Ray Jefferson marine battery charger

* 110 volt shore power

* 50 foot marine shore power cord

* 3 sails; Catalina Direct fully battened mainsail, custom vertical cut 150% genoa, and 110% jib.

* Galley with sink and alcohol stove

* Danforth bulkhead mounted compass

* Whisker pole

* Lewmar 2 speed winches

* Original manufacturer's documentation and manuals for all onboard systems and equipment including Catalina 25 owner's manual and owner's handbook.

no trailer.

Mark... Welcome to E.D.I.S. (Every Day Is Saturday)! Sounds like she'll be tough to give up!

It's not easy for me; but it's time for me to finally move up to a larger, bluewater cruising boat.

Since I'm going to be a "snowbird" living part time in my Boynton Beach Florida home as well as in my home New York City, I originally envisioned keeping Silver Girl up in New York so I could sail her during the summer months.

Then I got to thinking that I'd rather have a larger offshore boat in order to cruise the Carribean in the winter.

I had some surgery this spring and early summer that prevented me from getting Silver Girl ready to be splashed until yesterday.

If she doesn't sell soon; I suppose I'll just have to suffer another season sailing up here in New York waters.

Yup; retirement is great.

Cheers

Mark

Thanks, sounds great.

Sorry I didn't reply sooner but I've been having some health problems.

I'll be sure to look you up when I'm able to travel down to Boynton Beach which I'm hoping to do sometime in late October.
