Restored Cape Dory 28 for sale

[mattlydon]

Sleipnir is a 1975 Cape Dory 28, Hull # 39, which is just completing an extensive restoration, is now on the market and looking for a new owner. She is a very capable blue-water cruiser, a surprisingly quick sailor, and I get constant compliments on the boat, and comments to the effect that she is a very inviting ship, beautiful classic lines, beautiful woodwork, etc.

.Just about every component on the boat has been removed, refurbished or replaced, and re-installed/re-bedded – one of my witty helpers states that the only thing original remaining is the fiberglass.

Exterior:
Interlux Perfection Hull and Deck – stanchions, fittings, portlights, etc. removed prior to painting and rebedded afterwards, so paint runs UNDER the hardware.
All portlights replaced with NFM bronze portlights
Stainless Cowl vent
All lifelines replaced with Suncor bare stainless lifeline kits
Nonskid refreshed with Epifanes, cabin top refreshed with Perfection and grit
NEW Teak, finished bright:
New teak Toe rails
New teak Rub rails
New teak taffrail,
New teak hand rails
New teak coaming board
New mahogany bowsprit, all finished bright
All bottom paint was removed, hull was barrier coated, and new bottom paint applied

Interior:
All fiberglass painted with Interlux Perfection
Teak ceiling strips (interior) finished bright,
Mohagony bulkheads finished bright
All new settee and forward berth cushions, custom made multi-layer foam and high quality fabrics.

Mechanical/Electrical:
New Campbell Sailor Prop, prop shaft, cutlass bearing, PSS Shaft Seal, and engine coupling
New engine mounts
New Bilge Pump, quality hose, and bronze through-hull
Emergency Bilge pump hose replaced, strainer added
Balmar regulator/charge controller
Scupper hoses replaced
Twin 14 gallon stainless steel tanks with tank selector
Tach replaced

General Upgrades:
Very recent Doyle sails – still crispy

Manual Vertical windlass
Garmin GPS
New Plastimo Contest compass
bronze 2 speed winches

Additional standard equipment:
Depth & Speed instruments
Swim ladder
Flare kit – new flares, current ‘till 2017
Life jackets
Anchor & rode
Dock lines and fenders
Storage cradle & winter cover frame
Assorted spares – impeller and head rebuild kits

In addition to the above all running rigging was replaced 4 years ago, just before commencing the restore. While they are not new, they certainly are not OLD…..
I also have an extremely ratty dodger and frame for the boat – I didn’t use it, but it could be used as a pattern for a new dodger if you want one.

Priced at $19,500, Sleipnir is currently in the water at Nyack, NY

Hello
I know you must have sold your Cape Dory some time ago... I am looking to purchase a swim ladder for my CD28 and was wondering if you can suggest a brand or where to look. Did you add your swim ladder to your boat or did it come with one?

[mattlydon]

Yes, boat has been sold - swim ladder was a gunwale type, like this
