RE: [Electric Boats] Re: 1969 33' Bristol electric sailboat on ebay

 

Hello everyone,
 
This is a really interesting boat that's listed on Ebay... No, I mean REALLY interesting (to me, at least...). Check out my website: www.Intrepid-seas.com. As far as I know of, there are now two vintage 60s era Bristol 30 somethings that have gone electric. It was the best thing I ever did and love everything about it...
 
Cheers,
-Greg in Okinawa

The vessel is "Steppin Out" - which is the only other electric I knew about (I always see her backside, so didn't recognize from the pics). It's really a very nice boat - I'm sure there will be some deck squishies to take care of, but no obvious problems otherwise. New sails, some paint, a little electrical, some plumbing, new sheets, about $10K and 1000 hours -- and she's good as new! :) (remember folks, this is first a boat...and then an electric boat...)

The cockpit layout is really nice for bay sailing - lots of room behind the tiller
