1981 Stevens 47 For Sale
Due to illness our cruising is being curtailed.... Lillie Mae is for sale.

She is a 1981 Stevens 47 and is in turn-key cruising condition. Ready to go. I spent over $100K and well over 2 thousand hours renovating and upgrading this boat, she is the best equiped Stevens 47 out there. This boat will take you anywhere.... with all the goodies.

UPDATE: I finally got a ton of cosmetic work done and now have a new website giving full details and over 75 pictures.

Hope you (or the ill party) makes a full recovery. There is constant discussion on this board about really good long-distance cruising boats - here is one that appears ready to go. This is a really good design and extremely well-equipped (lots of new stuff rather than good old stuff),

Don't know the owner or the location of the boat but worth a look if you are in this market.

Thanks for the comment.

She is truly in turn key ready to go condition, a great sailing boat. She currently lies at Jekyll Island, GA but I will likely move her up to Savannah soon or possibly up to the Chesapeake. I would be willing to aid a new owner in delivering the boat anywhere on the east coast... or maybe anywhere else. The refit just completed cost over $100K and that does not include any labor.

I am not in an emergency scenario looking to dump the boat fast... but I am flexible on price.

Lillie Mae is getting lots of new interior varnish and a re-finished cabin sole. I expect to have her in the Chesapeake by mid to late August.

Contact me via email to schedule a time to see her!

That is one pretty boat. Great job on her.

Lillie Mae is SOLD....

From the time I got her cosmetics finished and started really marketing her through to having her sold and delivered took less than 2 months, I got 95% of my asking price, no broker commissions paid and I had 8 other potential buyers as backups wanting to view the boat. How? Email me for info. terrycspringer@yahoo.com

What I have learned through this entire process is primarily that the "accepted" method of selling yachts is amazingly messed up and inefficient.

Good news. My last boat was a 1986 Hylas 42 and I was surprised of the similarities with your boat. The galley is identical.
