I now have my first prices from Selden on that one, via a UK dealer.

3 full hours later I have 11 very useful items in my shopping basket, including several that will cover parts needed for rebuilding the furling motors. It’s an Aladin’s Cave of hardware items, all beautifully presented, each with every dimension you could possibly want to see.

And after our experience in the Gulf Stream back in May, we know the side decks can and do get submerged in a bad sea.Īnyway, once on the PC I get TOTALLY distracted when I take a quick look at webpage that Stephen had recommended. These fancy vents are specifically designed to get an airlock in the event they get submerged. But now I have the thought to plumb the outlet into one of the spare vents fitted by Hallberg Rassy in the adjacent cockpit locker. I can fit a cowling yes, but on a capsize or a rollover (heaven forbid!) a 4’ vent hole will let a lot of water in.

Even bought a fan in Martinique, but decided not to install it for fear of having a large hole in the side of the coach roof. So I head off to the laptop to look on for what I would need to buy. While in there, I start thinking again about putting a shower extractor fan in this ceiling void where the genoa winch electric motor lives. But with panel off I cannot see any sign of a leak overhead. When I returned to the boat I had spotted a brown water mark down the shower wall, originating from the ceiling. In the evening I replace the light fittings in the box fridge, do some more cleaning on the Inmarsat, then remove the ceiling in the aft shower. Mario is smitten by the 2008 model and I sense there will be an offer made in the coming days. We look into every corner of the boats and discuss at length what would need to be done to make each one ready for Mario’s planned liveaboard seasonal cruising on the US eastern seaboard and Caribbean. This is the same year Cloudy Bay was build and it’s very interesting to see the similarities in fitting all over the boat.

Little extra equipment (no AC, generator or watermaker) but obviously very low usage. That said, the price tag of $345k reflects the condition.īy comparison, the 2nd HR43 from 2008 at $390k looks almost like it just came out the factory. You can clean up a lot in a boat, but removing dents and dings in almost every piece of internal woodwork is almost impossible. Lots of cruising equipment and obviously extensively used.
I haven’t had a good rummage around a yacht since we were looking for Cloudy Bay over 4 years ago. He has an appointment to view 2 HR43s presented for sale at Free State Yachts and he has asked me to join him. More on this later – it turns out to be another brilliant tip from Stephen.Īt 2pm Mario arrives. And while enquiring what is the best plastic to use when putting stainless fitting back against aluminum (to prevent cathodic corrosion) Stephen introduces me to a supplier called McMaster-Carr. Where the stainless end fittings have caused corrosion on the aluminum spreader struts he recommends cleaning out the corrosion, then rebuild with a very thick grease called Lanocote, which is specifically designed to protect metals from corrosion and is viscous enough not be washed out over time. Then a visit to Stephen at East Coast rigging with bits of a dismantled spreader in hand. It’s a beautiful sunny day, so I first take a cycle ride to the post office to get some birthday cards sent off. Not a very productive day but certainly a varied one.
