WOODEN BOAT – SOUTH WIND
Todays woody story is proof that there is a buyer for everything, all that matters is the price.
The boat SOUTH WIND appeared recently on tme and was sold for +/- $1,400, it had a $1 reserve and all we learnt from the listing was she is is 39’ long, steering is tight and the diesel engine runs well + needs some TLC ( thats an understatement). Looking at the anchor winch, it was a good buy.
Personally with that ‘cabin’ I wouldn’t like to be out is anything more than 10 knots………. I think the Haines Hunter runabout is looking for its missing bow rail.
(thanks to Ian McDonald for the listing heads up)
