Cape Dory 28 for sale $3000

Post by Spondee »

1975 Cape Dory 28 “Spondee” – a wonderful sailor in good shape with an ailing diesel. Just put a 10 hp outboard bracketed on the stern and off you go. Or repower. Or freesail. Or rebuild engine.

See the photos at Craigslist ad:
https://maine.craigslist.org/boa/d/camd ... 71555.html

First good offer before October 1 takes this boat. Offered at mooring, in water, Camden, Maine.

I love this boat, and it’s heartbreaking to part with it. Original 1975 Volvo Penta MD2B has faltered (rod bearings gone), and with my kids headed to college, Spondee is ready for a new family to enjoy. Amazing sailor. My family grew up on this boat. The deck is very solid and all the gear and rigging is good to go! I had a barrier coat professionally applied to hull when I purchased the boat.

Please hit the email button rather than "PM" to find me. Thanks!

I wish I needed another boat, the 28 is terrific. This is a great opportunity for an electric conversion.
