It's too small for a live aboard. My impression... There is too much to fix at the current inflationary situation... you may not be able to get replacement parts...time lost fixing instead of sailing... I think you'd be better off on trying to find something ready to go.
I have a fibreglass 30’ motor sailer built 1968. Sails really well and built tougher than most. I read many of theses comments and wonder why people even attempt to enjoy sailing. Such negativity. If you want to sail, get a boat and do it. If you require full safety, new kit, surveyor and all….. well go and sit on the pier watching for another 15 years!
Good deal on a well built brit. 3k for solar, 5k for rigging and used sails, 1k for 20 L per day water generator, 4 k for tiny electric dingy, 1k for composting toilet, 2 k for cushions and covers, 3 k for wind vane auto pilot, 2 k for solar heat pump, 4 k for hull repairs and paint. 35,000 and off to Tahiti.
Good start. I would add at least another 8K to that. But yeah I have to admit, I am a sucker for those lines! Absolute beauty to these eyes. And I have said much of the world on 5 different serious cruising boats. One thing to make sure they have right as you WILL be motoring a good bit, is that 40hp is ok for this boat IF the reduction gear is good to match a good sized prop. This equation is critical to this boat. Also, for serious voyaging, some very good light air sail inventory and gear. But yeah, love these boats. It will take lots of TLC and work but for the right price!!?? A good friend of mine took his basically rumb line from England to Ft Lauderdale. Had a good trip too. Single handed. Engine and rig must be solid. Any significant hull damage or delam?
Wow a real blast from my past. I was a boat builder working at Northshore at this time fitting out Fisher 30's. Every job on these boats was priced so you were paid by what you had completed in a week and not by the hour. Problem was some of the boat builders were favoured and got all the best priced jobs. Great sea boat, steady and reliable.
10 % of new price avarage maintanance cost = 10 years no maintance is scrap value left. New rigging, masts etc etc. , you end up with cost of new boat, not even concidering hull and other damages. Offer me for free...... no,ty
Back in the day I worked for north shore. These were built to go anywhere in any conditions in comfort. I would have it in a heartbeat but get it as cheap as you can
For someone wanting to learn how to repair and refurbish one of the cutest little retirement liveaboards I've ever seen... this is it. Apart from the pilot house needing some TLC from a boat builder with a stack of hardwood, she's a beauty :)
Looking myself for a Fisher 30. Got just about 10 to select. So traveling a lot right now. Holland (where I live) Germany and Denmark. Asking price looks normal but the condition of the engine is very important to the price. When you love working at the boat the total price at the end of years will be much more than when you buy this boat in good condition with complete accesoires. I myself go for this last option because it is cheaper. The boat is very good for sailing in rough sea and wind. If that is also with the crew, you can have great adventures. Myself going to cold climate aereas. No problem.
Hey thanks for watching and commenting on my videos. I don't always see the comments when they are in a reply to another comment. im not sure how much she sold for. @@LiberaceProtege
Whoever gets this is going to have to spend a good bit of love into it. Frankly it's hull shape you could possibly do away with the master, & entire sailing part of the boat. It's got great character in its lines. I would make it into a trawler\tug style motor cruiser. Snatch that 40hp out & drop at least 80-100hp in it.
I lived on sailboats for fifteen years. With the pilothouse, you're not living in a cave. I prefer a cutter rig with the mast about 40% back from the bow. I would go over the entire deck and hull with a small ballpeen hammer listening for voids/delamination. Thanks for sharing.
My wife had an upholstery license and she used the pattern of my brothers old sails to make new sails. $75 worth of material and 100 labor. Before going to a sail maker clients should check with local upholsterers first.
Q chain is as strong as its weakest kink; so is a hull : it may have been solidly built but all the areas designated by blue tape plus the large rectangle stripped of its paint are places (not "spots") that sustained heavy damage from the storm. On the top of that considering the age of the boat osmosis sure made its way. So you must not be surprised if you have to stay aground during a year for a major hull structural repair inside and out. This means stripping the boat of its paint; a real paon but doable by anyone plus stripping a good part of the interior to gain access to damage areas from the inside. This means finding a place to stay; plus a place to store all the equipments of furniture that was stripped from the boat to start working. So the bill could easily increase twofold and reach $ 20 000 (purchase off the boat included) or mode depending on the place the boat is now. I would seriously think about it twice the more so that a Fischer was designed as a motor sailer for wold weather and particularly nit suited for the Zest Indies, Caribbean, and all other near Tropics climate. At any rate it seems to me that, given the condition of the hull, the asking price is at its top limit. To add to the restrictions it seems the interior was not very well taken care of : added some strip lining to hide the lid on the walls plus you didn't check what lay behind the wooden slats of the roof. The electrical circuit must be quite damaged too…not to mention a broken porthole which is a total loss so you'll have to get a brand new one or fill the hole with resin and fibreglass cloth as you don't want this part of the boat being open during sailing. It seems you're not very experienced in boats : nothing wrong with that. But I would hate to see someone interested in living off the grid and loosing his money in expensive repairs which are obviously important here… You should discuss the price and I wouldn't go above $ 7000 plus special conditions from the yard about cost of renting space and energy and water bills. If they don't sell the will scrap it. So I'm quite sure they're ready for a compromise to get some money from something that would turn a loss of money. Personally I would try starting at 5K and not go above 7,5K. Good luck!
It's definitely a project boat , but for an accomplished do it your selfer I wouldn't be afraid of it. However with inflation being what it is your material cost is going to be outrageous. I'd wait till the beginning of next year and start at 5k. And don't forget to take a look at the sails.
Shame to see a North shore Fisher in this condition. The Fishers were built to such a high standard that they became too expensive, very few were sold and the line was discontinued.
Ha! "...no more bills..." At the least, insurance, ongoing maint. /repairs and fuel and lubes. Then marina fees, haul-outs, asst'd taxes/fees and the ubiquitous "b.o.a.t." fund contribution for longer term, hi price repair/replacement....sails, lines, rigging engine work.... But.... With a sound base, frugality and a lot of elbow grease, it can be done!'😂
If I was younger and had $25,000.00 I wanted to invest, I would take on a project like this. I had a 43-foot sailboat in San Diego Bay and lived on it while I was on a ball in the bay. I must admit it was one of the most enjoyable times of my life. I'm just too old for that lifestyle any longer.
@theadventuresofbrockinthai4325 Would love to hear interviews from oldtimers who lived on boats and hear their opinion about things and if they would do it again. Maybe an Idea for @CharlotteHarborFischerman for the future. I hope you are doing well,
@@davecopp9356 Thanks Dave that a great idea and one I've been working on already. I am starting a new channel just for boats and thats going to be a big focus. do u see mush of that on YT? send me a channel if so.
I did it for a couple years and kept my boat at Dana Point Marina. Loved every minute of it and I'm looking to do it again in fact. Looking at boats and marinas currently. I experienced no down side at all.
@@davecopp9356I did it for nearly three years and loved every minute of it. No down side at all. I had a real house on real dry land an hour away but honestly only visited the house one day a week to pick up the mail. I'm 66 now and looking to do it again. I'm looking at boats and marinas.
Its not a canoe back, its a canoe stern or double ender. Minimum 20k to get her ready to sail. More if the tanks are in rough shape. Are there sails? If not, dont go near it.
need a good survey to determine what the hull needs, can the Yanmar run? Was the engine flooded? If the hull can be patched and the yanmar runs it would be a good project boat, need some AC for Florida but be great in Maine.
So much trash talk of Fishers. I've a 34 after years of lusting. The angled seating in the "small" cockpit allows everyone to sit (5 comfortably in the 30') without butts in everyone's face when they've got to move. The 34' allows 7 and anyone can get up and go inside without stepping on feet or over knees, even with a small table. I've been in the Caribbean either frying in a traditional boat's cockpit or baking in the cave below. Add a makeshift tent over the cockpit for shade and live hunching over. With the Fisher wheelhouse there's tons of headroom, open windows and sliding rooftop...and shade ❤. A hatch fan run by inverter provides tons of ventilation. The only boat I'd prefer over the Fisher is a Cat but to get equivalent seaworthiness I'd be well over 40ft and hundreds of thousands $. Tho...the 30 is a bit tight I admit. 34 opens up and 37 is ideal. No common man's affordability brings perfection either way.
Fantastic hull but very slow. No electronics, only real selling point is the engine if it is very low hours. All new electrics, new plumbing, pretty well new everything required. By the time you spend all that money and a year of your time to refit might as well got something that is in far better shape and be away far sooner. But at least this one has good bones to build upon.
With the hull damage alone it will require sanding everything completely down repair fiberglass and repaint. Top sides need same. I would not give 10k. Gonna take a lot of blood,. Sweat & tears with 💲💲💲💲💲💲💲💲💲💲
She clearly looks pretty good and needs some love and attention before being put back in the water. She looks like she is based on a North Sea drifter so she will be tough. As for the price I have no real feel for it but $10000 does not seem unreasonable but you would probably spend S20K to 30K on repairs
Glad to see the boat has a new owner. I sail a Fisher 25 in U.K. The sea-kindly hull form is based on traditional round bilge designs - they’ll keep you safe in the worst conditions. The vessels built by Northshore have an excellent reputation for quality finish. I’d say £$10k is not unfair, but I’d offer less! A bargain, for anyone with skills who wanted the adventure of owning a ‘project boat’. No reason to doubt that the boat could be restored.
GEE WHIZZ ONE OF THE BEST BOATS EVER MADE IVE BEEN AFTER ONE OF THESE FOR MANY YEARS BUT CANT AFFORD ONE,GRAB IT MAN,WOW COOL IS A SERIOUS UNDERSTATMENT
Very similar in design to my Husky 24 except a little bigger. Both were built in the day when the sailing was all important, not much thought went into lounging about while at anchor, hence little deck space to sit out. still we find a few square feet of room to set a chair when the weather is good.
@@CharlotteHarborFisherman that would bring about 55k in decent order in these parts. And are looked at in the same light as Nelson's .. couldn't get a tougher wee boat .. I personally find them rolly but then again most motor sailers are.
I owned a Fisher 30 for 5 years. I would never recommend anyone to buy one. Sails awful, slams always, terribly designed between size, storage, the walk ways, takings sails up or down, to the height of the windows. Terrible boat. Construction was some of the worst I’ve ever seen.
@@CharlotteHarborFisherman pounding into the seas, the boat and the bow particularly is so much heavier than most boats it’s size. It’s design was intended for the winds that in excess of 20 knots. Having growing up on the Florida coasts, this boat is ill suited for anything short of a tropical depression.

so 10.000 grand and 30.000 to update it better of just buying some thing for m$30.000 and spending $10.000 to fix it
Offer the asking price if they do the bottom repairs including paint and give you one year storage so you can work on it.

ummmm modern sails are not sewn so much as laminate glued.
@@edwardschmitt5710 She did the sails in 1979 so no laminate glue.
$30-$50K. . .that’s the problem with used boats. I’d negotiate the boat for a dollar and work with the yard to do basic repairs.
If you need to hire anyone, anyone at all then a fixrupper is not for you. All in the adventure doing everything yourself.
I would fix it up and sell it. It’s a little tight. With the money you made off it i would buy something bigger.

You can see its heavy duty built right away. Love it!
Buy it cheap, fix it up, bring along several cases of really good vintage, and get invited to hang out on your neighbors $million dollar yachts.😎
I want to hear her run
I would offer 8000 but what a lovely project.
10,000 is OK, but I see no less then 30,000 to get it sea worthy and expedition ready.
yep don't take much to drop 20k into a boat these days

Buy it in a hartbeat if engine functions propperly
Unreal bargain
needs a little help but at a glance not a bad price
I do like the hull shape. Seems quite weatherly.
Right looks like a proper sailboat
The design is based on traditional North Sea fishing boats.
need a good survey to determine what the hull needs, can the Yanmar run? Was the engine flooded? If the hull can be patched and the yanmar runs it would be a good project boat, need some AC for Florida but be great in Maine.
Not sure of the condition of the yanamar but this boat didn’t sink so it’s should have stayed dry.
Sweet boat. Love it. Perfect northern boat..i dunno about the tropics tho😊
yeah it would be warm in that pilot house

well said
Fantastic hull but very slow. No electronics, only real selling point is the engine if it is very low hours. All new electrics, new plumbing, pretty well new everything required. By the time you spend all that money and a year of your time to refit might as well got something that is in far better shape and be away far sooner. But at least this one has good bones to build upon.
Sounds about right
That's what everyone thinks new new new, it's just need some good cleaning and painting some minor repairs
right so many commenters are thinking they are going to have to restore it to perfection @@MrJeep75
I like it
Go for it
With the hull damage alone it will require sanding everything completely down repair fiberglass and repaint. Top sides need same. I would not give 10k. Gonna take a lot of blood,. Sweat & tears with 💲💲💲💲💲💲💲💲💲💲
Would take it anytime
I wouldn't pass it up!
engine is worth 4000 already
Right that’s a nice clean little diesel
Those are called bulwarks not gunnels. Fishers definitely have nice tall bulwarks for safety.
Well worth it.
I’d think so
Do it.
She clearly looks pretty good and needs some love and attention before being put back in the water. She looks like she is based on a North Sea drifter so she will be tough. As for the price I have no real feel for it but $10000 does not seem unreasonable but you would probably spend S20K to 30K on repairs
Good deal ,remove masts and will be an excellent great looper
Adding a diesel cabin heater would be a definite plus.
The 5 tons on the weight board is not the displacement of the boat but the Lloyd's Tonnage - the amount of cargo it is rated for.
Thanks for pointing that out and commenting. That’s a a lot of weight.
It's not a weight. Tonnage on a vessel is a measure of volume.@@CharlotteHarborFisherman
She is great for putting helium into the water supply. $10000 is cheep
Beautiful boat
A little too small
Good deal $40,000 worth, depending on damage. $15,000 in getting it to top shape
Right on
Sorry, I see a few of these per year, rarely asking more than $25k for a solid, ready to sail example. This is money pit…
I'd offer 6- 8 K max (those repairs ain't gonna be cheap!)
10K to buy a problem. For someone who values safety, it is not in good condition.
Even considering the work it needs, $10k is a good deal.
Why can I never find a fisher for sale like this before it’s sold… grrr
Looks like a dumpster fire waiting to happen , keep on looking ~
It is possible the old teak and holy floor are in place just painted over. Looked like it when you lifted the hatch in the house.
Could be
I suspect water damage , I looked at a couple of these and water leaks doomed them
Says 50k is all the money for one of those, in the water functioning. I do not see the heartache and headaches in value there.
That boat is so bad ass
Always loved this boat 👍
Unless you have the necessary skills that could end up being an expensive boat with storage & tradesmen
I think thats all boats lol
Cute boat i love it
Thanks for watching
great video for us...thank you!
Thanks I appreciate it
these are much sort after in the uk and bring big money ,if this was the uk that would be a steal even with the damage
Definitely a cold water boat
Glad to see the boat has a new owner. I sail a Fisher 25 in U.K. The sea-kindly hull form is based on traditional round bilge designs - they’ll keep you safe in the worst conditions. The vessels built by Northshore have an excellent reputation for quality finish. I’d say £$10k is not unfair, but I’d offer less! A bargain, for anyone with skills who wanted the adventure of owning a ‘project boat’. No reason to doubt that the boat could be restored.

GEE WHIZZ ONE OF THE BEST BOATS EVER MADE IVE BEEN AFTER ONE OF THESE FOR MANY YEARS BUT CANT AFFORD ONE,GRAB IT MAN,WOW COOL IS A SERIOUS UNDERSTATMENT
I’m more of a power boat guy
See you next week !! Webasto my be ??? 😂😅😂
I couldn't believe it when you said north shore yachts, I actually know the yard🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
cool
Good luck with her!!!☘
Nice stout boat
Yes felt very solid when I was aboard
A pilot house is a must have.
I would say so. Needs AC for Florida though
No such thing as a cheap boat
Looks like a nice project
Right it needs work but seems like it’s not too far away from setting sail
Solid deal for a boat with a good rep
That’s my thought as well
I'm jealous🙄🙄🙄
Ah yes, a used boat, that has storm damage. It's the proverbial Hole in The Water.
Fishers are nice.. but offer 5k. and you will still have it is my gut feeling
More of a 7000 boat.

A yacht is a hole on the water you throw dirt cheap money into
I like it
Thanks for watching

Very similar in design to my Husky 24 except a little bigger. Both were built in the day when the sailing was all important, not much thought went into lounging about while at anchor, hence little deck space to sit out. still we find a few square feet of room to set a chair when the weather is good.
Thanks for commenting
a lot of boat at that price , if you have a good pair of hands
Yep
@@CharlotteHarborFisherman that would bring about 55k in decent order in these parts. And are looked at in the same light as Nelson's .. couldn't get a tougher wee boat .. I personally find them rolly but then again most motor sailers are.
I owned a Fisher 30 for 5 years. I would never recommend anyone to buy one. Sails awful, slams always, terribly designed between size, storage, the walk ways, takings sails up or down, to the height of the windows. Terrible boat. Construction was some of the worst I’ve ever seen.
what do you mean by slams ?
@@CharlotteHarborFisherman pounding into the seas, the boat and the bow particularly is so much heavier than most boats it’s size. It’s design was intended for the winds that in excess of 20 knots. Having growing up on the Florida coasts, this boat is ill suited for anything short of a tropical depression.
I see what you mean. yes definitely not a Florida boat.

What is the price for this used boat? Is it cheap?
10K last time I checked.
You need to have a 4 or5 hundred dollar moisture meter, that would rule one major question, core saturation!
