cape dory 330 1986 gorgeous boat must sell quickly

Description

Beautiful Cape Dory 330
(Pictures coming soon. Keep checking back - I'll be updating throughout the day)
A serious financial issue is forcing me to put my beloved Respite on the market. If you can't complete the purchase of the boat quickly, please stay away. And no, you're not going to get the boat for a penny less than the price listed.
I bought her in 2012, and sailed her for one gorgeous summer. Since then, she's been on the hard at my house in East Nassau, NY (zip 12062) and you can see her there. There's a local shipper who quoted me $600 to put a slightly smaller boat in the water at Castleton-on-Hudson. There you can step the mast at the local yacht club using their crane and then sail her south down the Hudson. Or you could motor north to Lake Champlain or west to the Great Lakes.
The Cape Dory 330 is a pretty rare boat. Only 27 were made. It's the same boat as the Cape Dory 33 but with a shower which makes this a great live-aboard or long-range cruising boat. The galley is very practical. Hot water at the sink and a stove with oven.
The interior is in excellent condition. Lovely woodwork, no nasty smells. The cushions are decent but I always intended to change them but never got around to it.
Auto-pilot, of course. There are no electronics included. I put radar and a Garmin GPS on her, but they will not be included with the boat.
The Perkins diesel purrs like a kitten. I've done 2 long-range trips with Respite, and the engine worked flawlessly both times. One was from the Chesapeake to Brooklyn, and the 2nd was Brooklyn to Castleton. Both times there was no wind, and the Perkins was more than up to the job. Frugal on fuel, too. Less than a tank of fuel each trip. (It's a 12-gallon tank, if I recall correctly.) You should perform regular maintenance before putting her in the water - certainly change the impeller and oil. You're welcome to do that at my yard. You can also bottom-paint her, too. You should consider new batteries. The condition of the ones in the boat are unknown at this time.
I love the cutter rig with its self-tending jib. It makes an afternoon casual sail so much easier. Just turn the wheel and deal with the boom and your tack is done. Speaking of sails - they're decent but original. Both the previous owners really looked after them so there's no immediate need to change them.
Send me your questions and a phone number - let's talk. If she doesn't sell, I'm going to put her in the water and live aboard so if you're considering a low-ball offer, please don't waste your time or mine. There is no 'Make Offer' button on this listing for that reason.
You're welcome to have a surveyor come by. The boat is for sale locally and this listing might be removed at any time. My phone number is 518-768-7450
Oh, by the way, you don't need to remove her right away. You could wait until Spring next year if you want. (But once you buy, it's your responsibility if a tree falls on her! Or any other mishap.)
