I posted some pics in the gallery of the boat. The bottom/hull are in great condition. I spent more time working on this boat than I did sailing it.
Always open to helping fellow C27 sailors out :) Derek.- ________________________________ From: Mark Akerman <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Wed, February 24, 2010 8:13:39 PM Subject: Re: [IC27A] C27 Value Sounds like a bargain to me. You want to come do some work on my boat? :-) I think you are a little low, although you didn't mention hull/bottom condition.

The boat is a 79 standard rig, traditional interior. I bought the boat last year - its been on the hard for the past 11 years. The boat was originally bought in Michigan and sailed on lake st. clair. Since I picked it up last year, in addition to all the cleaning an reconditioning - the following upgrades were performed: - Custom keel bolt reinforcement plates - Replaced all through hulls with Groco ball valves - New circuit breaker panel - New battery selection switch - A4 Tune up with carb rebuild, water pump rebuild - Added A4 oil filter & pcv system - Electric fuel pump conversion - Electronic ignition conversion - Replaced hot section of exhaust - Replaced A/C box, rewired with ground fault - Installed Xantrex true charge 20 battery charger - 2x new 27 Group batteries - Installed electric bilge pump - New CD/MP3 stereo with subwoofer - Installed new electric water pump with filter - Installed new spreader light - installed CD stainless C25/C27 spreader brackets - Pulled rudder - applied Catalina fix - Applied fresh VC 17 bottom paint - Installed anchor mount on front pulpit and added anchor rode storage. - New carpet - Installed new head (2010) The boat has a jib, 150 Genoa, 170 genoa, spinnaker and main. All are in like new condition. No furling - but there is a hank on headsail bag. There are a few outstanding things that need to be done and addresses as the boat was only in the water a short period last year - but overall its in great shape. I did a check on the web and it looks like there are 51 boats on the market with an average asking price of $10,400. I was thinking around $7500 for mine. Thoughts ?
