We are going to reduce the price to $70,000...
I think it's worth a million...

Decks were painted when I got her. They have many coats of Awlgrip and are in great shape. They don't leak. 250 Gal Stainless tanks in good shape I had her surveyed when I bought her...

So maybe we over-priced?
We'd take 59...
What do you think she's worth?

For the condition I think 60-70 is a great value!

She actually looks better now than in most of these pics...
I'll send a few more....
We have a survey from when we got her in 2012. I can scan and send a link

I think your initial price was dead-on for the condition. Not an easy market for yachts. Some stay for sale for a few years. Don't get discouraged unless you really need to be rid of it.

Hello All: I thought I'd upload some more pictures.

Anyone at at the Trawlerfest in Stuart?
We are only 30 minutes south by car and 2 hours by boat.
If you're interested but can't come down, I'll bring her up

Calypso price reduction

Hello All: I wanted to update the ad with a lower price: $65,000.
Attached are some new photos taken a few weeks ago.
You won't find a cleaner boat! Thank-you and best regards!

Hello, Caribe. I like the looks of Calypso and might want to take a look. I'm in NC and dont want to invest a lot of time and travel just to be surprised and disappointed. I feel sure you are representing her fairly but would like to know of any problems, long term or short term, that might impact my decision.
I hope you understand.
I look forward to hearing from you soon.

55 to 65K is a good asking price.

Just had my mostly rebuilt 1988 Albin 40 survey at $70K.

My asking price would be 60K.....and take way less unless a few quick higher offers were made.
psneeld is online now
