30 ft NEWPORT SLOOP 1975 ..See Craigs List, Port Townsend , Wa. .. I live in Tulsa Okla. Have sailed one sail boat or another out of Port Townsend for thirtyfive/fourty years.. Escaping work for weeks time spent extended vacation up North in the Summers. Purchased this 30 ft Newport, what I knew to be Sound/Solid sail boat for this summer and our future . Intended to and did sail her Noth from Brownsville marina to my second home, Port Townsend last week. We had a few things remaining to do {not much) .. when lousy health news said I wouldn't be able to continue these trips. .. see Craigs List, Port Townsend. She's not perfect, but in terrific, sound condition. many, many photographs. all taken in the last month or so after learning I would have to sell her. Willing to take much less than I know she's worth. It's a great boat , sailed us North , Slipping over in at Port Ludlow for a nights and sailing on to P.T. next day, last week. Slipped now in P.T. Main Marina. the 9.9 Yamaha Elect start kicker starts at touch of button (runs perfect) . the 3.3 Merc on dingy is a two stroke pull start, and starts/runs great. The autofurler up front deployed well for our trip North, and stuck on rewind as I've seen happen before. I've aways hated the things (autofutlers) and would suggest pull autofurler off the forestay (throw it in the trash) and put on either the great Lapper or the Jenny,, pictured bagged in the galley with the Spinnaker and the spare Main. before our trip last week we fully cleaned the hull/topsides and inside.. (the bottom I paid to have pressure washed in the water last summer). I installed a new depth gage , confirmed running lights working, used both Garmin GPS , and headed North below Agate Pass bridge.. .. price is negotiable.. Motor (Diesel) Kabota/Universal .. I assume I got air in fresh diesel lines when I installed new Injectors..and fuel pump .... dingy is clean and paintered to aft of boat. some items not perfect, headed home (fly) to airport, ride with brother, I was marking all wiring inside 12 v switch panel, some white tape turned up on forestep, ..the head: 'Lectra San' unit is ancient and useless, the (blue) head holding tank (holding only, and is a wide spot in the line), Diesel tank I did suck out empty, added four gallon back and sucked that out(clean). .Halyards are old but mostly solid (hundreds of feet of spare, real line, is in Galley as pictured), the half inch Gold Line (150'+- rhode) is good and anchor is special (see pic), galley is terrific, table converts, the three burner stove was converted long ago to propane as is the grill in the cockpit. there is a beautiful (as is all the wood in this boat) folfing Cockpit table and an Autohelm as pictured... the insides and out are as pictured, not all items are perfect, some we did not have time or use for and may be untried. .. this is an obviously well cared for boat, with a solid history, and is in terrific condition for it's age. boat is locked till I return (fly from home in Tulsa), to meet with buyer on date/price we agree to. I treat persons with respect, and will look for the same. I will try to answer questions from Serious persons who understand the subject and are Serious about purchasing this or like sailboat. thank you for your time spent with this boat that I am forced by health to sell.
