Looks a lot to me like the 32 Gourmet Picnic like Codger owned in SD with a FB. Show us some inside shots, VDZ!

Harrie might be translating. His English is way better than my(non existent)Dutch.
The 32 resembles the last IG32s too. Maybe different brands,but all from the Jiang Hua factory.

It might do better in Sydney.

It will be interesting to see how it goes, although 1/3 of our marina has “mainland” boats as residents, as the owners summer homes.
The selling market is certainly strong, as with any leisure/lifestyle products.

I hope you folks are out enjoying Sojourn as much as possible

Wet windy weekends, and partner still working M-F,has made the last few weeks no go. Next weekend is not looking any better as yet.
I checked, the Integrity 386 in Hobart is already "Under Contract".

The market is incredible currently, mind you it’s a very tidy boat

Yep, the market is very strong, a 40 Clipper berthed next to us at the Royal Motor sold in about three weeks, virtually at the asking price.

I would wait a while, I think in about a year or so, there will be a lot of these new purchases back on the market. Especially when we can all travel again. The lure of Aspen, or Verbier might tempt the new boating fraternity to liquidate the new toy in favour of a month or so in a winter wonderland.

It`s had the headliner done too. That`s our winter job, ours is peeling and sticky. The Clipper 40 headliners die too, some were redone under warranty.
You could be right Andy, buy in haste, sell at leisure. The caravan/motorhome market is gangbusters too.
I`d be travelling south interstate(NOT Victoria) for a holiday, got a Jeststar(typo but Freudian slip too) voucher I need to spend, but more important to be around for my vax when available.
Another disgusting weather weekend in Sydney.....

That's interesting. I always thought the new type of headliner was forever. Makes the flakey matt white paint job I had to restore on Lotus, (after 30 odd years), sound very easy. Masking the timber trim strips between the panels was the only tedious part.

Really. Well to be honest, the weather up here in SE Qld has been so nice for so long I'm sick of it. I want rain for the garden and lawn and to fill my tank.

Swap you for your weather! My water tanks are full, well, they would be if one didn`t leak.
Neighbour`s new headliner for his Clipper 40 was $8K. Roof handrail etc comes off, panels come out, get recovered and glued...big job for a trimmer, but you painted yours, that`s good and it saves $$$. I would not trust the base of the peeling top layer, it really needs new vinyl, hoping to avoid rhinoceros scrotum pattern vinyl.

Crikey. 8k for new headliner..? I had the whole hull of Lotus two-pack painted by a local marine paint specialist for that price a few years ago.

Actually that sounds like quite a bargain. I imagine it takes quite a few rhinoceroses to make a whole headliner.
