I'm buying hull#39. Currently in the shop in NJ for repairs to some delamination/moisture issues but will be trucked down to Florida - Daytona Beach area - when completed. She's a C&C inboard version. Still on Yachtworld.

Hi libertas, did the sale go through? And, was that the old Cleveland based boat, "Balance?"

Hope things went well with the trucking!

Yes, boat is in St. Augustine, FL right now at a boatyard having a variety of small items taken care of. Bottom work is all done, delamination repairs, barrier coat and VC Offshore. Her previous name was "Dirty Little Secret" (not making it up) sail# 41267. Major item now is engine, will be run and leak checked this week. Looks like there has been an exhaust leak in the past although the elbow seems new so maybe it was replaced and no-one bothered to clean up the soot. Anyway, engine will then be pulled, bilge and engine cleaned and painted, dripless shaft seal installed then hopefully return to service and launch in a week or two.

I should add her new name will be "Lively".

Excellent! Best of luck with the recommissioning. Glad to hear another 32-2 is being saved and not chain-sawed and binned.
