Hi there,

 

After listing with a broker starting at $129,000 last year, I have decided to list this privately. Obviously, this recovering recession is reflected in the current price.   I bought Southern Light three years ago and fully renovated it- fresh interior including 3/4" Brazilian cherry hardwood floor, teak panelling, new upholstery and counters, as well as a professional paint spray outside and new canvas.  My girlfriend and I then sailed off for a wonderful four months to the Bahamas.  The boat is cheap on diesel, and loves a strong wind.  It is huge inside, with almost 7' headroom in the main saloon, and sleeps eight in 3 doubles and two single berths.  

 

Returning to Miami in January 2014 the engine wouldn’t start – stuck rings?  Stuck valves – clogged injector pump?  I’ll never know – because in the end I did a full rebuild - $1500 injection pump rebuild, new injection tips and rebuilt injectosr( $560, new rings, 2 new pistons, all new cylinder liners/sleeves.  Runs great now J  .

 

Our beloved Caribe was stolen this winter, but we have replaced it with a 2011 hypalon Achilles with a 2011 Tohatsu 4 stroke.  Mothership and tender are ready to go!  Please feel free to call me (Geoff Rogers) at 604-873-4626  or in Miami Beach at 305-713-7391 or email any questions you may have to thresholdfilms@yahoo.com.

 

On deck, you will find an exceptionally well planned cockpit and helm area. The helm station is positioned aft of the "social cockpit area" and being higher, it affords the helmsman excellent visibility forward. Forward there is a split anchor locker and immediately aft is a generous sized sail and gear locker. The rig offers a full battened main and furling head sail. The placement and count of deck hatches provides for excellent "below decks" ventilation. As you descend the companionway, you enter a very generous salon area (fitted with recent new upholstery and foam cushions) and generous lighting, to include two large port lights at eye level (when seated). Immediately to port of the companionway, is a large walk-through galley equipped with a four burner propane stove, refrigerator and generous storage. There is full door access to the engine compartment (opposite the galley sink). The owner's cabin has large port lights aft, good closet, shelf and bin storage. To starboard is the master head that offers a separate stall shower. Moving back to the salon, just to starboard of the companionway is a conveniently placed quarter cabin with a dedicated navigation desk. There is plenty of space to add electronics. Going forward, to port is a second head and just opposite to starboard is a large storage locker with space to organize tools and supplies. Forward is the "queen center" berth that has good lighting and head room. Keep in mind that forward of this cabin (on deck) is the sail and anchor lockers, so this berth / cabin has much more space than one typically finds in a forward cabin. Southern Light is roomy and offers an owner the opportunity to create / develop many of the locker spaces into very functional storage areas. For someone looking for a vessel to spend extended time aboard, Southern Light has the volume to meet one's needs.

Important points to consider:

Canadian registered vessel – but U.S. made therefore no duty.  But new buyer is responsible as usual for any sales taxes, fees, etc.  But I can assure you American registry is straightforward – I have the last Florida registry in hand.

-Mast height is 66.5 feet, Intercoastal controlling height is 65 – you do the math.  We can only leave Miami Beach for the Bahamas for example when it is a fairly low tide – ie less than 1 foot tide.

-No Holding tank.  Wasn’t a factor for us in the Bahamas but must be addressed for American waters

-Some limited electrical work is still needed…final tie-in of helm station to engine (oil and water gauges are in engine room – must be re-set to helm station.  Also some indicator lights and gauges need servicing at electrical panel

-there are a couple of little leaks from hatches and portlights – one needs simple recaulking, a portlight needs a fresh membrane/gasket – small stuff

-bottom scraped but needs new paint.  I will paint if a potential buyer pays haulout for survey.

-Dockage is available in the south florida area.  Delvery beyond this region is possible for additional fees.  Delivery is not included in price.  Panama to Vancouver by ship - $20,000.  Houston to Seattle by truck $13,000.
