1983 41’ Roughwater for sale.

[1983 41 foot Roughwater]

I’ve lived aboard for over 40 years on five different boats both sale and power from Baja to the Broughtons. It’s time to hit the dirt. Nice to be part of this team.

Roughwater made a great value-oriented Ed Monk Sr. designed boat. The forum police might want photos, location and asking price. Others will be interested in seeing what you have. 40 years of living aboard and cruising is a Great run. You have been fortunate brother.

Excuse me but this sailer is a woman and actually it’s 42 year livnigaboard without a stop. I’m the captain. Many many stories from Baja to the Broughtons.

I didn’t mean to repeat myself.
Crazy thing about the dirt. I was raised on a chicken ranch with 7,100 chickens. We’ll just see.

Is there a for sale ad somewhere we can see?

Can't wait to read about some of your stories. This sounds like an interesting life. I know one woman in Olympia, WA that lives aboard a 41 ft Roughwater. Her name is Candy and she drives a purple Jeep.

Most folks who want to sell provide a bit more information.....such as a link. Of course, perhaps it's a seller's market for R41s and buyers will go above and beyond when an example comes available .....

I'm obsessed with your Roughwater! Seems perfect for my wife and I. I look at it several times a day.

Well, here's a CL ad for a 1983 R41 in Friday Harbor (Seattle area). Presumably the OPs boat. Current asking is $69k.

I like the R41. Almost bought one as my first liveaboard (ended up with a Uniflite 42). Layout is unique and interesting. Watch out for plywood superstructure.
