Well, we find that we are just not using her as much as we should--busy lives, indeed--and so it is time to sell our beloved Sound Waves.
33' overall
twin 5.7 Mercs
RayMarine Chartplotter with GPS and Fishfinder
I am the second owner.
The Good:
- Starboard engine has less than 20 hours on it (2019)
- Port engine is brand new--being installed, this week (2020)
- Freshwater cooling system installed from the beginning--i.e., no salt water in the engines, ever.
- Brand new upgraded throttle assemblies ($1200 installed! 2019)
- Always professionally maintained (i.e., no amateur mechanics, or dock rats have touched this boat)
- Brand new canvas and Eisenglass (2019)
- Raymarine C-120 electronics
- Air Conditioning blows ice cold
- Heater works perfectly, too
- Galley stove never used--works perfectly.
- New master panel assemblies (2019)
- Refrigerator works perfectly
- Bedding in very good condition (rarely used)
- All cabinetry in excellent condition (rarely used, if ever).
- Interior clean
- Head is spotless--i.e., never used, thank God.
- 40 gallon fresh water tank (no odors, at all)
- All lights, GFIs and electronics work perfectly
- Brand new Lewmar 400 windlass and rollers ($1400, installed 2019!)
- New heavy claw anchor (2019)
- Both props have one short season on them (2019)
- No leaks topside or bottom
- Deck shower
- New cockpit side panel (2019)
- New Alpine stereo unit (2019)
- Many extras--lines, anchors, PFDs, cushions, fenders
The Less Good:
- Boat can use a good waxing and polishing, topside and bottom
- Interior carpeting is okay, but can use a bit of refreshing, I'd say. No tears, that I can recall, just a bit of treadwear
- Bottom should be blasted with walnut shells, and repainted, although it just rec'd a new coat of paint in July 2020.
- Rear bench seat was taken out (never used it, waste of space and weight)
- Teak accents are pretty good, but can use a bit of cleaning and sealing
I bought this vessel from a man in his 90s; he was the original owner, and kept it only in fresh water (North end of the Hudson). But he was a dock guy--rarely took it out on the river. The meters had about 500 hours on them when I bought the boat, in 2018. I replaced the starboard engine in 2018 ($12,000!), and I have only put about 20 hours on it--max. The Port engine is being replaced, this week. I had brand new canvas and Eisenglass installed in August 2019 ($4500!). The boat is shrink-wrapped every year, for the winter, of course. The gas is always clean and stored properly in the tanks. The oil has been changed religiously since it was new. I have all the receipts, too, of course.
So, I'm hoping for $20,000. Will entertain offers, but remember, the new powerplants and canvas cost $20,000 right there. The boat will be splashed this week, I'm told. Will be in a slip in Stamford, CT.
This great boat has been only lightly used in its entire history--average less than 20 hours a year! She's an older boat, yes, but they really don't make 'em like the used to. My loss, your gain.
Some of these photos were taken while I was cleaning the boat, so there are items strewn about--but, I'm sure you get the idea. It's a fabulous family boat, with many years left on it. Why buy a new one for a quarter million dollars? Take this one for 90% less!
