[Public-List] Dolce for sale

[Glenn via Public-List]

Hello all,  I have decided to put Dolce up for sale here in Puget Sound.  Here is the local listing with gear and major upgrades.  I would be happy to send along pictures and a 2012 survey to anyone thinking about buying an Alberg.  Basically the boat is equipped to meet the Singlehanded Transpac requirements, and sails like a dream, with all lines run into the cockpit, and ample sail inventory, including twin downwind sails.

Asking $22,500- fully equipped. Negotiable if a new buyer didnt want all the gear!

1968 Alberg 30, hull #318
Laying Puget Sound, Washington

Puget Sound, San Juan Islands boat since new.  We are the third  owner since new  and are now downsizing due to retirement.  Dolce is fully refitted and upgraded for Puget Sound family sailing, and single handed sailing and world cruising. Four sister ships have completed single handed circumnavigations, two of which finished last year. The refit complies with the Singlehanded Transpac entry requirements, and has a PFRH rating of 229.  Very active A30 owners listserve available for world wide email maintenance support and cruising/ racing communication. Dolce is perhaps the most upgraded, well maintained, and best equipped A30 in the 700 vessel fleet.

Asking $22,500 fully equipped. 

Bring food and water and go sail the San Juans or round to the far side of the world.  All the maintenance has been done!!!
