My new Scampi 30!

[jarcher]

Friday, I'll be closing on a Scampi 30. 31 years old, but in pretty good shape, terrific sails and in the water ready to go. The survey came back with no major problems, only very minor repairs and cosmetic issues.

Of course, there is the little matter of a hurricane working it's way up the east coast to New England. I guess Friday is probably not the best day to buy a boat!

But after the bad weather this weekend, I'm hoping for some nice weekends before haul out. I have plenty of friends anxious to come for the ride.

Wish me luck!

You dont see a lot of Scampis around. I saw one for sale in Greenwich RI and if that is it, what a beautiful babe she is. We want pictures!
Congrats

Yup, thats the one, from the East Greenwich YC. Thanks everyone!

I have the pics from the survey but they don't look too good, having been shot with my phone camera (the surveyor's camera didn't work). I'll take some new ones with a real camera...

This sale included some very nice sails, teo head sail and a main all made with carbon fiber. Spinniker is a little older but that's okay.

Well some friends of mine are trying to recuit me into the RI YC, but I'm not sure I'm the YC type Either there or probably Dickensons in Warwick...

Have a Scampi, and some tricks regarding the hydraulic drive, if you need any.
