    Thanks Patrick,
     
    That’s really good info. Was that for installing the rig too?
     
    Best,

    Do you think there is some advantage to the oil in it?

    Hi P,
     
    Did you put anything inside the V-drive, or is it actually just empty and disconnected?
     
    Thanks,

    That is definitely the correct answer!

    I’m sure there are a variety of ways to ship a boat, but I doubt any would come
    in as cheaply as $10 or $20k. I have a recent quote from Dockwise and they
    quoted $36,100.00 to ship a boat from Ft. Lauderdale to Vancouver. Other methods
    could be cheaper, but would also involve unstepping the mast, pulling rigging,
    etc. (all of which will be full of potential additional expenses, at both the
    delivery and shipping points).

    Ziba is a very nice black-hulled 424 cutter rig (but it doesn’t have the C Plan
    interior). It used to be in Shilshole fulltime, tho it had an SF hailing port. I
    met them when I first moved to Seattle in 2006. When they disappeared, I assumed
    they’d gone cruising, though it’s also possible that they sold it or move
    up/down the coast… don’t really know.

    Offer is usually accepted first; then sea trial.

    Hi Don (and Pat),

    I’m having trouble logging into the forum.

    Don – I wanted to speak with you regarding your boat (I went and looked at her
    last weekend… very nice). Is there someplace I can reach you offline
    (email)… or drop me a note if you like, at

    Pat – if you could re-activate my account, i’d appreciate it greatly. I know my
    name/password are still in the database… they just appear to be turned off.

    Thanks,

    Paul Audi

    I saw Rhythm and it looks interesting (stainless toe-rail, all stainless hand-holds, no eye-brow… so NO wood) and, of course, less work. But there is something amiss to my eye. I’d also imagine that stainless toe rail to be burning hot in summer sun. Could be unpleasant for barefooting.

    Rich,

    What is it you don’t like about a deep sump?

    Hey All,

    I’m sure I’ve seen threads about this in the past, but could find them.

    I looked at a P424 this weekend with a “filled in sump”. It appears to be concrete. I’m not sure what this might do to structural integrity (better? worse?) or how the added weight might ultimately affect the performance.

    I’d love to get input from others, particularly from anyone who’s actually done this to their boat.

    Please lemme know. Thanks,

    Paul
