You two are REALLY living the dream. This means that you are both, HERO’s to those of us who have worked our lives away and never said “to hell with it” Were jumping in with both feet! Randi, YOU, are the girl of MY dreams! Jordan. You are one lucky SOB! I hope you never lose what you two have Just always be happy with each other. Safe travels and keep the dream alive!
Very realistic boat for someone who can live aboard and do their own work. I like this boat and as long as the moisture in it is good then the price is close to right. Thanks for getting a boat tour of something I could afford! Love what you guys do.
RUclips will teach you almost anything you want. I have always had to do all of my own work out of necessity. I always wanted the things others had and I happened to grow up poor so my solution was to repair and maintain everything myself. I honestly believe most people can figure out how to do something and be successful. With digital cameras and internet it makes it even easier to do. Confidence and self motivation are the main things that help me repair most anything. There are a few things that you do need a professional for. Buy the boat and I will help you. I need a good project next summer!
I partially grew up on the great lakes and seen a number of Bayfields as a young man. I also spent the majority of my formative years in Bradenton / Cortez which made this episode more interesting to me! My family indeed lived aboard in our Florida years. I caught the school bus at the marina gate and weekends we anchored many times off of Egmont Key. What great memories...
Nice episode nice boat. I think it is a realistic decision for having a blue water boat for size and money. Yes - you need to check the core, especially in the knees and around any (aftermarket) fittings on the deck. The yanmar (we have the same engine) is generally reliable. Of course, standing and running rigging must be replaced - dyneema is a good update. Nice touch that the safety line lets you get out at mid-ship - a cleat there would be highly beneficial when docking or undocking. The rudder chain and elements may also need to be changed as it is often neglected - a machine shop often charge you less for a rudder part than buying it from the factory. The bow-sprit is a real bonus and the rigging system is the same as on a new beneto or other mass-produced boat. If the hall is sound and the structure is solid, it is good to sail around. We have a very similar boat (Puma 38), 6 people can fit and we still make 400 nm family trips on her - although she turns 45 this year.:)
@@bryanirwin5473 Hi, knees are the vertical bars the chain plates are attached to in case of inner chain plates. They are also sandwich construction, but prone to water damage as water can get through the deck around the chain plates.
FYI Wellcraft boats used to be in Bradenton and fiberglass was used alot. Also for a very short period Donzi boats were here also. Both business's were by the airport for sarasota/bradenton. I have a cabinet that a friend/employee of wellcraft made me. :)peace
I owned a Bayfield 36 on the Great Lakes for a number of years. It's a great boat. It's a full keel wit a cut away fore foot so she comes about nicely. Because it a cutter rig, she won't point very high but loves 60 degrees off the wind. In heavy wind she squats rather than a drastic lean. Yanmar diesel is adequate and will push the boat beyond hull speed. Best of luck!
i was touring that area, with van, canoe, kayak, dog, fishing gear. that is a fantastic boat. i stopped in bayfield, wi. on lake superior where they are made and stopped to check the little town out, walked around with my dog, dodging the fudgies with their ice cream, t shirts and fudge. the boats are solid to say the least. beautiful lines, wine glass stern, full keel... maybe that is why a bath tub works? that boat is made for the large, steep, choppy waters of the great lakes where i grew up. as in the gordan lightfoot song? a big ship an be on several waves at once which can lead to the breaking up of these ships. bayfields are my favorite, slightly ahead of cape dorys for blue water sailing. you don't want a center board over grown surfboard up there, like what they sail in florida. bayfields are also designed for colder weather. i am stuck in colorado... like skiing in wisconsin. capt. juan fully loaded
I was looking at a Bayfield 40 that was absolutely amazing with it's old classic lines and rigging. Seeing a bath tub on a sailboat totally blew me away as far as a feature. I'd just be happy with a separate stall shower. Nice video and thank you for the tour.
Beautiful sailboat. And as you-all stated, the perfect candidate for a refit on a Bluewater capable boat. Low hours on the engine and the refrigeration working, not bad. Just need sails, rigging, brightwork and electronics, autopilot, wind-vain and misc.... GOOD TO GO. Maybe $75 to $95K later of course.. But still, in total, $100 to $130k for a blue water boat is a good deal.
Except if it needs that much to upgrade, while it is still not bad price for good capable blue water cruiser, but there are couple of others on the market currently at ~60k price point. Both of which appear to be in well maintained condition and allegedly ready to cruise. Ofc who knows for sure w/out actually looking at them, but the point is there are boats out there that can be found in good condition at that range. The thing is though, depending on what all survey shows, one might be able to get around for lil while and slowly upgrade it back up to par as they get the funds. Instead of needing to spend a lot right away.
Another great find. Good Value Canadian built as I remember. You could defiantly use as is while you prep it for what ever your intended use is. Much better to buy something that' runs a drives' than a back of the boatyard wreck for half the price.! Run it for 6 month before pouring a long of money into it. If you like it take it from there! Cheers Warren
Please put the model of each boat you tour in the video title. This would let people who have questions about specific models to find your great videos. A wide angle lens in the cabin would take your videos to another level
Wow. That is a really good price.. Thank you for doing these videos, I've learned quite a bit from them. I think the Bayfield 36 and the Hans Christian 33 are my two favorites.
Lots of potential there with a proven make/model. At under $25K asking, she is definitely a Classic Plastic and would make a great boat for a single-hander or couple. Great pick for a tour!
I like on your video's that I have watched that you put the asking Prices in your description. Though some of these videos are aged some. I gives some idea of the markets. Best Wishes! M.H.
@@TheJulio2205 The actual definition or difference between a Sloop and Cutter, old school, like in "Chapman's Boating & Seamanship," is the position of the mast. On a sloop, it's ahead of amidship, and a cutter is more amidship to allow for two foresails. Today what we call a cutter is actually a modified sloop, as this boat is, set up with two foresails. The forward one is the jib, spinnaker, or genoa, depending on what your running and the wind, the rear one is called a staysail. A cutter is a very versatile rig if one knows how to sail them. A cutter ketch is also a very popular and a super blue water rig.
@@TheJulio2205 Cool, and what we mean by a modified sloop is that you have two types of a sloop. A masthead sloop has the forward stay running from the bowsprit, or the foredeck just aft the pulpit, all the way up to the masthead, the top of the mast, hence the name masthead sloop. Your jib is attached to this stay. A fractional sloop, on the other hand, has the stay attaching about one third the way down the mast and just above the spreaders. So it has a stay at a fractional distance up the mast. Again your jib attaches to this stay. Now with a modified sloop, it has both a masthead stay, and fractional stay, and able to carry two foresails, and now a cutter. Pretty cool stuff, right?
Mast head rig is driven ( powered ) by jib . Frac. Rig is driven ( powered) by main sail . Mast headed cutter is best of both worlds & gives u smaller sail area to work with so u dont have to fight large sail area in squel weather/ rough seas .
Very solid boat. I remember touring one in Canada in the late 1990's, I was quite startled by the bath tub! That particular boat ended up falling over on the hard after a storm...
Now that looked like it was worth the asking price. I don’t know how the hull and deck were as far as moisture and blisters but if they were good that boat is livable while going through section by section bringing it back to life. Perfect size with an awesome setup. I just found this tour so of course it is already sold but that is the best boat for an affordable price without a loan you have shown that I have seen. I should have been paying attention last year instead of preparing for surgery and trying to walk. I know you guys see a lot of nicer boats and you probably plan to get a loan for your boat but hopefully you will show 3-4 of this quality and price range every year.
OK, now, this is more like the boats I would like to see. Affordable but still in reasonable shape. I heard nothing about electronics. Probably, it had none or were so out of date they were not worth mentioning. I'm still waiting for more what I want. 40ft +or-, cutter rigged ketch. Thanks for this.
I love your videos, ya”ll do a great job. Love the honesty, you cracked me up at multiply 3 times the estimate amount, truer words have never been spoken. Thank you.
Also, reviewing boats in the 35-45 foot area (ideally around 40) is, from my purely selfish perspective, ideal, but for a lot of people who are intending to sail short handed or solo that's the sweet spot, as you know.
Those Bayfields were built in Ontario, Canada. Most were sailed in the Great Lakes, and the guy that owned the boat yard where we kept our family sailboat, had a franchise to sell them. They are a nice boat, well built, but slow as molasses.
If I'm not mistaken these Bayfields are Ted Gozzard designs, very capable off shore boats. I like these classic designs from Bayfield, seriously looked at a 32' a while back
I have no experience with sailboats but I'm intrigued by the possibility of getting a larger boat and sailing to Hawaii. I see all these boats for very cheap prices but I'm wondering if they really are bargains or if they are just money pits . Can you go into some of the possible disaster scenarios where a person could get stuck buying the wrong boat ?
Couldn't see the price on Patreon so I can over here. Is that a misprint on the price? That's a really great price! Good suggestion on the survey. Even if you had to replace the rigging and sails you would still have less than new buy. The biggest advantage would be you can sail while you fix things up. The interior looked old but not damaged and for a couple or single this would be perfect for starting out. After all look what you've been able to do with Freebie! Thank you both for showing this.
I love that boat, and a reasonable price. If I was in the us I'd very seriously look at that, just unfortunately not in a position to get a boat overseas and sail it half way round the world at the moment.
This would be great for the two of you. The down sides can be mediated easily, if one was going to switch to electric and convert the spare berth to a chart room/ shop space.
Great video, you guys do a nice job of showcasing these boats, I really like the Bayfield design of sailboats, this one is very nicely laid out, wouldn't take to much money to make it a world class cruiser, because we only sail the Florida coastlines and occasional trip to the Bahama's we decided to purchase a smaller boat after we sold our Privilege 615 catamaran, we ended buying a 2005 Dana 24, the used Dana's come at a hefty price, but so worth it, we paid $58,000 for this one but it was a turn key boat, we did a few upgrades on it to make it more live aboard friendly, we live aboard her 6 months out of the year and keep it in a slip at City Marina in Key West......
Well, I had a long review on the first video, but to make a long story short, hard for me to do, I know, but this is my favorite sailboat yet from all of your boat tours, and I've seen them all. With all of the others, there was always something to where it was nice, but I can't live with that. This is different, it's the perfect boat, a genuine diamond in the rough, and it's a freaking cutter with butterfly hatches! I'd swap for my Perkins 4-108, I have one with very low hours and add a boom vang, handy. Look at all of the winches and gear, a radar too, old but hey, if it works, better than not having one in the beginning, right. At 24K it's a steal. I got a free Out Island 41 after Andrew, had a broken mast, clean break above the spreaders, and I was able to sleeve for $15OO, but she had half sunk and was on her side when I got her, 4 months later you'd never had known, lived on her for 11 months and got $55k at sale. This one would be a walk in the park compared to that one. How long has it been on the market? I would like to call, but that would be some handy information if you catch my drift. Edit: Forgot to add, it even has a windlass. A handy thing for an old man like me. Those damn anchor's get a little heavier every year. ;-)
I really liked this boat, I mean a tub on a boat that size is remarkable. Sure it needs a little work, but what used boat doesn't. I loved the cutter rigging and the price is about right for a single person or couple to afford, though you are right, I'd definitely try to get a better price from them. The port and starboard settee look very comfortable. Beings that I'm a painter by trade, sanding and finishing the cabin would be awesome. If they would come closer to 20K, I could really see myself on this boat.
I think you guys should start putting some of the prices out there on these boats you know it would be nice to know without going through too much look up on it so you so if you’re interested you would look up more on it That way you won’t have to virtually waste your time if you have a rough idea that’s all I really ask in a rough idea what it’s worth instead of going through a whole new video and the people that owned it everything else you know it would be great
I don't know if there are any Pullman sleeper cars on display in FL. Their fame came partly from upper berths that folded down from the wall, to make a bunk bed where there had been just the lower bench during the day. They also used a clever sink that folded up against the wall when not in use. I have seen a Pullman style sink on a P32, but never Pullman berths, only the swing-down pipe berths on purpose-built racers. FWIW. You'll see Pullman berths in some classic movies.
Not sure I'd need to start with as inexpensive a boat as this. That said, this boat would be perfect for a starter boat for me, as a solo sailor, and has room for guests. I'm pretty sure you'd need an engine and sails, the two biggies, at 20 grand total. I like the fact that it has two furlers. I haven't looked at the keel. Or much else.
Not bad. A tub in mono, while it sounds awesome, not sure how often that could be used cruising around. More for a multi ... or some really huge and wide mono. But yea for that price and if one puts in 20 - 25k, one could still save some money in the near term. As there are couple others currently going around ~$60k price, allegedly ready to cruise. I don't know, its a nice boat and Bayfields are great blue water boats, but it just did not grab me. Like it, but not sure I loved it. Definitely has some nice potential though, just always concerns me when they need obvious TLC, just how much else is neglected. There is a difference between old and well cared for vs needing TLC. Even if that well maintained boat needs something fixed, when its clear the owner took lot of pride in the boat.
LOVE THE LAYOUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GREAT LIVING AREA AND CAN WE TALK ABOUT THAT TUB!!!! ID PAINT THE INSIDE WHITE AND REALLY BRIGHTEN IT UP! THOSE WINDOWS ARE HUGE!
Should I move to the states to buy a canadian built sailboat... tempting. for that price, it's a maybe. I would do that today for sure, but it's probably long gone
This pair seem to concentrate on thr trivia of the boats. They don’t seen to talk too much about the boats underbody. Type of keel, rudder, seakindlyness etc. All more important than whether the wet head is accessible to guests!
IDK, I would be surprised if it was a twin keel or swing keel. Would be interesting to know if it has a skeg rudder. nice config for a 36', yet where is the aft quarter?
You think a disabled person like me do a sailboat .had colon and need liveaboard but very hard on disability pay.Do you have suggestions?if it is wise too live aboard a sail boat&maybe day sail?or after Dr.give all my meds then go sail for a week?
@@raymondtakamoto4799 Hell yeah dude! I have a 16 year-year-old brain damaged at birth from listeria meningitis daughter and shes is autistic too. I have her a special life vest-harness you can hook to a davit or stiff leg (one over the hatch for instance) with a safety strap that hooks to the inside of the cockpit. She loves to sail. We have friends at the marina; one's an 84.- year-old lady living on her 40-root Irwin that she and her husband retired on 18 years ago, he died on the boat a year and a half ago, and she says she is too. Her son lives in Dallas, so I keep an eye on her, and when he comes down, we take her out. He has a harnessed bosons chair she hangs in at the helm to sail her boat, she's too cute, because she can't set in the seat with the boat heeled. John, her son, gave me the idea for the harness and hoist, it's how she gets on and off the boat and down and up the hatch. It has a remote control. If you want to sail Raymond, you can do it. I have COPD, not on Oxygen, but still, it makes doing anything harder, but I get by because I want to. Follow?
@@raymondtakamoto4799 I look at it this way Raymond, I'd rather die trying than to not have tried at all, regrets get harder to swallow as one gets older.
I'd guess it depends how much help you need and how much help you can find. If you're willing to ask for help, then that's one way of meeting people - which is good. I imagine something like getting a new propane bottle would be one of the most demanding tasks. Launch a dingy. Get the empty bottle and yourself into the dingy. Drag it miles to a shop. Drag the full bottle miles back to the dingy. Get the bottle and yourself off the dingy and onto the boat. Recover the dingy. It seems to me, what you need is someone to let you try some of the challenging tasks on their boat, and see if you're ok with them. (Raising a sail, changing an oil filter, ... )
Costs is a matter of doing the sums. My little house is very cheap to live in. £1,000 property tax and water. £1,000 energy and internet. £50 Travel £2,050 a year = £5.60 a night. That's very hard to beat. A camper van would be; (There's almost no free places to park/stay in UK.) £1,000 vehicle tax, insurance, safety cert and maintenance. ??? Fuel ($10 a gallon), tyres. £3,650 Site parking at £10 per night. Easily £5,000 a year = £13.70 per night. A narrowboat £1,000 river canal licence (gives water and toilet cleaning facilities, and lots of free parking spots) £1,000 Fuel (diesel, propane, coal, ... £1,500 150 nights private mooring (for winter, electricity, laundry, ...) £3,500 a year = £9.60 a night. Hotel. £50 a night. But of course, my little house doesn't move. If it's in a bad spot today, It'll still be in a bad spot tomorrow. Location is super important in house-buying. On the other hand, it's very unlikely (but not impossible) to sink, or break down and leave me stranded. And I can get stuff delivered here.
Ok, great tour as usual. But tell me, berthed in a marina or just offshore in a hot climate. It must be like an oven in there during the day to evening?
@@williamavery9185 LoL, I can imagine! I spent a deal of time down there myself. I lived in St. Johns Harbor in Antigua for five months. I've set several folks up with a 5000 BTU marine unit. Find them used or on a salvage boat for cheap, refurbish, and your good. On a 32 to 40 foot boat, they're more than enough on low if one insulates well and covers the hatches. On this setting, they pull about 2.5 amps/300 watts, not bad. I have a 37, and my unit keeps it cold. This summer, we hit 100 plus in Clear Lake, and I had no problem. With 300ah of batteries at 48v, I can keep her cool all day at anchor, and on a nice sunny day my solar is sometimes making up the difference, and I have a wind turbine too. Always have A nice breeze on the Gulf of Mexico. Happy Sailing, my friend!
Its a "V berth " not pullman "Quarter berth" not main berth- main saloon not seating area . Keel stepped mast - no comperssion post . Geona track - not travler . Mast head cutter rig with what looks to b "Harkin " furling gear ( sty sail & jib ) . Back stay loose cus has a hyd back stay adjuster .
Great looking boat but until it gets pulled out of the water........... Also, looking at the small engine space I found myself wondering how difficult access really is

Very nice for the money-- looks bigger for a 36'-- a good clean & rework interior wood-- like it-- thanks--$25k !!!

As I say often I like your reveals and the boats you choose. Good work from fellow Floridian
I like the lay out very spacious for a small boat. Nic price also. Just needs a little TLC. Thanks guys!
Love this one!!!! Great looking boat for it's size.
Built in Bayfield Ontario and was designed for passage making in the Great Lakes. Heavy boat, stable and was very popular when Bayfield was building.
Realistic boat. Frankly things like how dark the wood is has zero importance campared to the quality and condition of the equipment and gear

@@TheJulio2205 Cool, and what we mean by a modified sloop is that you have two types of a sloop. A masthead sloop has the forward stay running from the bowsprit, or the foredeck just aft the pulpit, all the way up to the masthead, the top of the mast, hence the name masthead sloop. Your jib is attached to this stay. A fractional sloop, on the other hand, has the stay attaching about one third the way down the mast and just above the spreaders. So it has a stay at a fractional distance up the mast. Again your jib attaches to this stay. Now with a modified sloop, it has both a masthead stay, and fractional stay, and able to carry two foresails, and now a cutter. Pretty cool stuff, right?
Mast head rig is driven ( powered ) by jib . Frac. Rig is driven ( powered) by main sail . Mast headed cutter is best of both worlds & gives u smaller sail area to work with so u dont have to fight large sail area in squel weather/ rough seas .
08:09 ,, I'd try a "Mr. Clean" magic eraser on the headliner first ... they have a mild abrasive and work very well.
It looks like it is textured though, magic erasers are awesome but don’t handle texture well
Those magic erasers are....... magic.
I'd build onto the ceiling after sealing the ceiling and add good LED lighting into it.
Very solid boat. I remember touring one in Canada in the late 1990's, I was quite startled by the bath tub! That particular boat ended up falling over on the hard after a storm...
Very sweet interior layout. One of the few aft cockpit designs under 40' you could have a real guest room for em to sleep in.
Now that looked like it was worth the asking price. I don’t know how the hull and deck were as far as moisture and blisters but if they were good that boat is livable while going through section by section bringing it back to life. Perfect size with an awesome setup.
I just found this tour so of course it is already sold but that is the best boat for an affordable price without a loan you have shown that I have seen.
I should have been paying attention last year instead of preparing for surgery and trying to walk.
I know you guys see a lot of nicer boats and you probably plan to get a loan for your boat but hopefully you will show 3-4 of this quality and price range every year.
She's a beauty! The boat is also nice...Thanks for the tour
OK, now, this is more like the boats I would like to see. Affordable but still in reasonable shape. I heard nothing about electronics. Probably, it had none or were so out of date they were not worth mentioning. I'm still waiting for more what I want. 40ft +or-, cutter rigged ketch. Thanks for this.
I love your videos, ya”ll do a great job. Love the honesty, you cracked me up at multiply 3 times the estimate amount, truer words have never been spoken. Thank you.
5:37 in that berth, it looks like there's a door handle on the left. Perhaps that gives more access to the engine/prop-shaft.
Also, reviewing boats in the 35-45 foot area (ideally around 40) is, from my purely selfish perspective, ideal, but for a lot of people who are intending to sail short handed or solo that's the sweet spot, as you know.
Very nice layout for a 36.
From personal experience, Bay field makes great cruising boats
Those Bayfields were built in Ontario, Canada. Most were sailed in the Great Lakes, and the guy that owned the boat yard where we kept our family sailboat, had a franchise to sell them. They are a nice boat, well built, but slow as molasses.
You two produce a great show. Thank you.
Hi guys. Was there a chain/anchor locker? Any real lazarette space in the cockpit? Anywhere to store lines, tools Jerry cans etc?
If I'm not mistaken these Bayfields are Ted Gozzard designs, very capable off shore boats. I like these classic designs from Bayfield, seriously looked at a 32' a while back
Very nice boat. Thanks for presenting something more affordable. Enjoyed the video.
I have no experience with sailboats but I'm intrigued by the possibility of getting a larger boat and sailing to Hawaii. I see all these boats for very cheap prices but I'm wondering if they really are bargains or if they are just money pits . Can you go into some of the possible disaster scenarios where a person could get stuck buying the wrong boat ?
Couldn't see the price on Patreon so I can over here. Is that a misprint on the price? That's a really great price! Good suggestion on the survey. Even if you had to replace the rigging and sails you would still have less than new buy. The biggest advantage would be you can sail while you fix things up. The interior looked old but not damaged and for a couple or single this would be perfect for starting out. After all look what you've been able to do with Freebie! Thank you both for showing this.
I love that boat, and a reasonable price. If I was in the us I'd very seriously look at that, just unfortunately not in a position to get a boat overseas and sail it half way round the world at the moment.
Boarding ladders tend to be at the stern because most boats in most circumstances roll faster than they pitch.
Also, it's easier to shoot intruders when not broadsides in rougher water.
@@andytaylor1588 Good point
This would be great for the two of you. The down sides can be mediated easily, if one was going to switch to electric and convert the spare berth to a chart room/ shop space.
Great video, you guys do a nice job of showcasing these boats, I really like the Bayfield design of sailboats, this one is very nicely laid out, wouldn't take to much money to make it a world class cruiser, because we only sail the Florida coastlines and occasional trip to the Bahama's we decided to purchase a smaller boat after we sold our Privilege 615 catamaran, we ended buying a 2005 Dana 24, the used Dana's come at a hefty price, but so worth it, we paid $58,000 for this one but it was a turn key boat, we did a few upgrades on it to make it more live aboard friendly, we live aboard her 6 months out of the year and keep it in a slip at City Marina in Key West......
Well, I had a long review on the first video, but to make a long story short, hard for me to do, I know, but this is my favorite sailboat yet from all of your boat tours, and I've seen them all. With all of the others, there was always something to where it was nice, but I can't live with that. This is different, it's the perfect boat, a genuine diamond in the rough, and it's a freaking cutter with butterfly hatches! I'd swap for my Perkins 4-108, I have one with very low hours and add a boom vang, handy. Look at all of the winches and gear, a radar too, old but hey, if it works, better than not having one in the beginning, right. At 24K it's a steal. I got a free Out Island 41 after Andrew, had a broken mast, clean break above the spreaders, and I was able to sleeve for $15OO, but she had half sunk and was on her side when I got her, 4 months later you'd never had known, lived on her for 11 months and got $55k at sale. This one would be a walk in the park compared to that one. How long has it been on the market? I would like to call, but that would be some handy information if you catch my drift.
Edit: Forgot to add, it even has a windlass. A handy thing for an old man like me. Those damn anchor's get a little heavier every year. ;-)
The butterfly hatches are what do it for me too. I don't know what it is but I love them.
@@bryanirwin5473 They're classy for one, let in a lot of light, and give excellent ventilation. They're actually a cupola like on a barn or house.
I really liked this boat, I mean a tub on a boat that size is remarkable. Sure it needs a little work, but what used boat doesn't. I loved the cutter rigging and the price is about right for a single person or couple to afford, though you are right, I'd definitely try to get a better price from them. The port and starboard settee look very comfortable. Beings that I'm a painter by trade, sanding and finishing the cabin would be awesome. If they would come closer to 20K, I could really see myself on this boat.
Hello, what have you guys learned about the sailing characteristics of the bayfield 36? how hi can it point? how well does it reverse into a slip? ty
I honestly think about 10k spent on this boat would make it a lovely boat if you put the work in yourself
I think you guys should start putting some of the prices out there on these boats you know it would be nice to know without going through too much look up on it so you so if you’re interested you would look up more on it That way you won’t have to virtually waste your time if you have a rough idea that’s all I really ask in a rough idea what it’s worth instead of going through a whole new video and the people that owned it everything else you know it would be great
Beautifully laid out boat. I like it!
I don't know if there are any Pullman sleeper cars on display in FL. Their fame came partly from upper berths that folded down from the wall, to make a bunk bed where there had been just the lower bench during the day. They also used a clever sink that folded up against the wall when not in use. I have seen a Pullman style sink on a P32, but never Pullman berths, only the swing-down pipe berths on purpose-built racers. FWIW. You'll see Pullman berths in some classic movies.
It would be helpful if you would declare what the boat is made of Fibreglass, timber, aluminum, steel etc.
that link doesn't link i don't think this boat is for sale anymore.
Not sure I'd need to start with as inexpensive a boat as this. That said, this boat would be perfect for a starter boat for me, as a solo sailor, and has room for guests. I'm pretty sure you'd need an engine and sails, the two biggies, at 20 grand total. I like the fact that it has two furlers. I haven't looked at the keel. Or much else.
Bayfield 36 has been on my list for a while now too
Nice boat , like seeing these boats in my price range .
That looks like a great live aboard that can be worked on
I would sail this boat and make incremental improvements plus all of the standard maintenance as she goes.
Very nice boat. Thank you. Good video, but, you could look down once in a while. As always, Randi is just adorable
What do you think of the Jeanneau Gin Fizz for open water cruising?
Omg that's basically free for a boat built by the Gozard family! A Gozzard 31 new goes for $320,000
Very cool. The mods I'd make would help that price blow up.
gozzard did OT build this boat....gozzard is a higher quality builder
You guys going to be at the Tampa boat show? I'm sure there are a lot of people like myself that would love to share a coffee and talk boats.
Not bad. A tub in mono, while it sounds awesome, not sure how often that could be used cruising around. More for a multi ... or some really huge and wide mono. But yea for that price and if one puts in 20 - 25k, one could still save some money in the near term. As there are couple others currently going around ~$60k price, allegedly ready to cruise. I don't know, its a nice boat and Bayfields are great blue water boats, but it just did not grab me. Like it, but not sure I loved it. Definitely has some nice potential though, just always concerns me when they need obvious TLC, just how much else is neglected. There is a difference between old and well cared for vs needing TLC. Even if that well maintained boat needs something fixed, when its clear the owner took lot of pride in the boat.
Sure wish you added the asking price in the video. Be a great learning tool for us newbies.
May be I missed it how much is the asking price that's $$$money yo own it ???
LOVE THE LAYOUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GREAT LIVING AREA AND CAN WE TALK ABOUT THAT TUB!!!! ID PAINT THE INSIDE WHITE AND REALLY BRIGHTEN IT UP! THOSE WINDOWS ARE HUGE!
Nice boat and good tour guys. Realistic boat for a couple or single liveaboard. Andy UK
Should I move to the states to buy a canadian built sailboat... tempting. for that price, it's a maybe. I would do that today for sure, but it's probably long gone
Its hard not to like these each could be a dream boat made more interesting by your enthusiasm plus Randys really hot !
This pair seem to concentrate on thr trivia of the boats. They don’t seen to talk too much about the boats underbody. Type of keel, rudder, seakindlyness etc. All more important than whether the wet head is accessible to guests!
IDK, I would be surprised if it was a twin keel or swing keel. Would be interesting to know if it has a skeg rudder.
nice config for a 36', yet where is the aft quarter?
drx1 xym
My point being that they are concentrating on the wrong things
Never seen one of these. Very cool boat.
Any electronics included?
I have the $
But I live in Australia.
beautiful boat.
thanks for the tour guys
andrew I will sail it to down there!
You think a disabled person like me do a sailboat .had colon and need liveaboard but very hard on disability pay.Do you have suggestions?if it is wise too live aboard a sail boat&maybe day sail?or after Dr.give all my meds then go sail for a week?
Love your channel on Some good deals.I'm looking for a 33-40 ft sailboat to bring back .im bored being disabled.i have done brightwork&teak Varnishing
@@raymondtakamoto4799 Hell yeah dude! I have a 16 year-year-old brain damaged at birth from listeria meningitis daughter and shes is autistic too. I have her a special life vest-harness you can hook to a davit or stiff leg (one over the hatch for instance) with a safety strap that hooks to the inside of the cockpit. She loves to sail. We have friends at the marina; one's an 84.- year-old lady living on her 40-root Irwin that she and her husband retired on 18 years ago, he died on the boat a year and a half ago, and she says she is too. Her son lives in Dallas, so I keep an eye on her, and when he comes down, we take her out. He has a harnessed bosons chair she hangs in at the helm to sail her boat, she's too cute, because she can't set in the seat with the boat heeled. John, her son, gave me the idea for the harness and hoist, it's how she gets on and off the boat and down and up the hatch. It has a remote control. If you want to sail Raymond, you can do it. I have COPD, not on Oxygen, but still, it makes doing anything harder, but I get by because I want to. Follow?
@@raymondtakamoto4799 I look at it this way Raymond, I'd rather die trying than to not have tried at all, regrets get harder to swallow as one gets older.
I'd guess it depends how much help you need and how much help you can find.
If you're willing to ask for help, then that's one way of meeting people - which is good.
I imagine something like getting a new propane bottle would be one of the most demanding tasks.
Launch a dingy. Get the empty bottle and yourself into the dingy. Drag it miles to a shop. Drag the full bottle miles back to the dingy. Get the bottle and yourself off the dingy and onto the boat. Recover the dingy.
It seems to me, what you need is someone to let you try some of the challenging tasks on their boat, and see if you're ok with them. (Raising a sail, changing an oil filter, ... )
Costs is a matter of doing the sums.
My little house is very cheap to live in.
£1,000 property tax and water.
£1,000 energy and internet.
£50 Travel
£2,050 a year = £5.60 a night. That's very hard to beat.
A camper van would be; (There's almost no free places to park/stay in UK.)
£1,000 vehicle tax, insurance, safety cert and maintenance.
??? Fuel ($10 a gallon), tyres.
£3,650 Site parking at £10 per night.
Easily £5,000 a year = £13.70 per night.
A narrowboat
£1,000 river canal licence (gives water and toilet cleaning facilities, and lots of free parking spots)
£1,000 Fuel (diesel, propane, coal, ...
£1,500 150 nights private mooring (for winter, electricity, laundry, ...)
£3,500 a year = £9.60 a night.
Hotel. £50 a night.
But of course, my little house doesn't move. If it's in a bad spot today, It'll still be in a bad spot tomorrow. Location is super important in house-buying. On the other hand, it's very unlikely (but not impossible) to sink, or break down and leave me stranded. And I can get stuff delivered here.
Sweet boat! I like it!
Good job on the video showing the boat this time I enjoyed watching this one you're lucky guys she's a sweetheart
Ultraviolet ages varnish darker. Bayfield used great quality teak
and was a little dark new.
I really love this boat
Hi, when was this video posted? Can’t find the boat for sale anymore...l
ChEeEePp!!!
hey man, I think you guys should get certified to become surveyors and start serving boats...
between them both , there is not enough knowledge to charge $10.00 to survey any boat
Why didn't you take the Sandals off when stepping on the yacht ? How about the camera man - shoes on as well?
Ok, great tour as usual. But tell me, berthed in a marina or just offshore in a hot climate. It must be like an oven in there during the day to evening?
It has airconditioning. If you live in Flordia or the coast of Texas like me, you're used to it, and we use the A/C.
@@CajunWolffe I Live in the Caribbean, and my boat has not that luxury. Even with all ports open its not nice.
@@williamavery9185 LoL, I can imagine! I spent a deal of time down there myself. I lived in St. Johns Harbor in Antigua for five months. I've set several folks up with a 5000 BTU marine unit. Find them used or on a salvage boat for cheap, refurbish, and your good. On a 32 to 40 foot boat, they're more than enough on low if one insulates well and covers the hatches. On this setting, they pull about 2.5 amps/300 watts, not bad. I have a 37, and my unit keeps it cold. This summer, we hit 100 plus in Clear Lake, and I had no problem. With 300ah of batteries at 48v, I can keep her cool all day at anchor, and on a nice sunny day my solar is sometimes making up the difference, and I have a wind turbine too. Always have A nice breeze on the Gulf of Mexico. Happy Sailing, my friend!
Nice old boat. I got a 67 grand banks ketch. Real pretty , much project , boat ! Lol.
Please mention the asking price. Thx.
Cool boat guys! Wish I was younger. I'd rework it in a heartbeat! Waiting for your next vid !👍😎
Nice boat!!
Are you guys looking to change up to a bigger boat? Just wondering as we haven’t seen a video of your boat or you guys sailing in a long time.
Its a "V berth " not pullman
"Quarter berth" not main berth- main saloon not seating area .
Keel stepped mast - no comperssion post . Geona track - not travler . Mast head cutter rig with what looks to b "Harkin " furling gear ( sty sail & jib ) . Back stay loose cus has a hyd back stay adjuster .
your right on all accounts
Sold?
This is just a great tight layout.
What was the price
Great looking boat but until it gets pulled out of the water........... Also, looking at the small engine space I found myself wondering how difficult access really is
Did it have A/C and a water maker?
Does the engine work?
This an incredible good find, thanks for sharing. Any chance you will be attending the Toronto Boat Show in January?
