Family of seven looking to buy an older heavy displacement sailboat fully prepared/ refit for ocean crossings and long term living
Preferably 40’ range for length.
Full keel but shoal draft would be nice.
Any rig considered… mostly Dad at the helm but overall two adults plus two able bodied young teens can do a lot! (Haven’t told them yet though.. tee hee :)
Not really. Actually they are a super team at everything they do thank God!
Of course solar system and watermaker is necessary.. Have a solar system that I can add also. Watermaker can be added to the right boat.
Not necessary to have 7 individual berths of course… that’s pretty rare I would think. The younger ones can pile up in a v berth or rear cabin..
All necessary electronic navigation is a must but also would hope to have back up paper charts as well as any useful equipment.
We are a family who has travelled now for ten years sharing Christ of the Divine Mercy and the Holy Rosary and our next assignment is well overseas. As well as ports in between.
If you have a boat that fits the description, please email with details and photos please.
Thank you and may God bless you!
