[Public-List] Alberg 30 dolce hill no 318

[Glenn Brooks via Public-List]

Hi Daniel,

Just noticed your message on the Alberg 30 mailing list. 

I retired earlier this year and now am getting ready to put Dolce on the market, probably in early January. I have owned the boat for   9 years now and have just recently completed a very extensive upgrade of all system and structure.  Basically I've replaced or upgraded everything on board, including rear deck, and new cockpit, woodwork, rigging, sails, cushions, mechanical, plumbing, mechanical, and electronics. Essentially everything on board, including a Cape Horn Self steering Windvane. 

I set the boat up for singlehanded sailing to do the singlehanded Transpac two years ago and the boat is essentially unchanged since then, except for rebuilding the transmission and adding 1" teak cockpit hatches this past summer.  

Probably Dolce is one of the most completely updated and seaworthy alberg 30's in the fleet.  I have about $50,000 invested in the boat refit and equipment.  probably will ask around $25000 when I list it - depends on what equipment I leave on board.

She is laying Everett Marina, just north of Seattle, Washington, so that is probably a disadvantage to your location in New Orleans.  However there is a very reputable boat transport company locally that could move the boat if needed, and at a reasonable price.  I've used,them in the past and was very happy with their customer service and professionalism.

Here are a couple of photos, If you would like more information, I can email you some detailed photos, and a maintenance and refit record for what I have done to the boat.  

Iam the third  owner". The previous guy, Bob Green, bought the boat when it was nine months old, and kept it in the San Juan Islands, northern end of Puget Sound for 35 years, until I purchased the boat in 2004.  

We are in Hawaii at the moment, visiting old neighbors, but will back to Seattle area, early next week- where I have my maintenance record on another computer.  

If Dolce is a boat you may be interested in, I can certainly answer any questions you may have, and would be happy to show it to you, should you wish to come out to Washington to take a look.

My cell is 206.790.8711

Best regards

I am 63 and my wife of 40 years is now on hospice care so I am not interested in a project boat because I am too old and want a boat I can sail on and not just work on,  and I do not have time to travel around looking at different boats.  I have tried using a buyers broker to locate a boat so far without success and I haven't had any luck locating a boat near my home in New Orleans,  LA.

I can afford to pay for a premium price for a premium boat and to have the boat transported to New Orleans and any help finding a good A 30 would be greatly appreciated.
