We worked on her 900 hours in past two years.
Stella B is a beautiful, loved and sound vessel. We have invested nearly $40,000 in repairs and improvements since we bought her in 2021 for 30K. We had dreams for her. We have loved her dearly. We had scads of fun with her throughout the San Juan Islands and North Whidbey of Washington State. Alas, retirement, health and family changes have made us proceed with an early and somewhat painful sale. The loss financially is significant. Though we could sell her for more, we have chosen this current price because we want a short process to let her go.
With that in mind, we intend to sell her to people who will love her and use her for fun. Hopefully someone who is skilled or, eager to learn, mariner. She is older, so there will be issues that arise. So, someone with rudimentary mechanical mindset is a bonus. She is simple mechanically. And salty and easy to travel in. Sturdy and Pretty. Also, we intend to be transparent regarding potential challenges with her. On a daily travel side, she can be a challenge to back up. We use prop walk (to the starboard) to our advantage. On the mechanical side she runs and starts well. She could use anti-slip paint on the back deck. The Fuel tanks are Spotless and clean. Cleaned and polished 2 years ago. The only other thing we can see as future fix is either buffing the plexiglass windows or eventually changing them. Those are the only things we can think of that potential challenges. She runs great. But there are no guarantees.
She has no leaks, no dripping portholes, no squishy decking. The best part of her is the galley, the dining setup and the amazing 360 degree view, full of light, in the cabin. Wow, she is an absolute joy to hang out in at anchor. Great for bringing friends along, especially on the cold days when the two cabin heaters really make comfort a reality. Lots and lots of storage, too. And fine stove. The water system and head work great. And are Not stinky.
As far as intangibles she is stately and always attracts positive, and affirming events an people.
Please contact us with questions and consider seeing her IF you are qualified with the whole amount of cash and sincerity in your intention. For our part we will be completely straight forward and honest. But we won’t fool around with people who are tire kickers, scammers or fakers. Stella deserves a loving family or individual to take her on adventures (Like the many times she has been to Alaska Ports). Let us know if you are interested. This price is a bargain, when one considers that approximately $70,000, including the original price of 30K, has been invested in her.
Take Care and Thank You.
