There was an article around 6 months ago,someone did the same thing. I'm pretty sure it was a 24. I'll dig through and see if I can scan you a copy.

Thank you Harry, very informative!

Sirocco would be a great buy, it has been raced a lot during its time with some really good and consistant results. The current owner does want to get rid of it, had a starting price at 45k which was unrealistic, at 29k you will be nit picking to reduce it too much further.

Is he after a fast sale..... offering 22k would be insulting the guy?????
Have to ship it to WA any idea of cost somebody?

I am interrested in that one in QL http://www.boatpoint.com.au/boats-for-sale/boatdetails.aspx?R=13213776 any body knows it?

Looks like a bucking fargain. Why not just sail it over the top?

there's a thread on SA about this boat, consensus seems to be it's a bargain.

I think you'd be doing pretty well to get it for $22k, there's buggerall otherboats worth looking at for that sort of price.

You need to suss out the trailer, from what i'd read, you'd need to spend a little.
If you got it for anywhere near like $22k, it would be worth probably the $6-$8k getting it back, or spend the same on the trailer and tow it back yourself.


Lots of fun to be had at that price...

no swing moorings nearby?

Good read, broken down barney rubble style so I could read it

What about buying in the US and sailing the vessel back to Australia, can you still sail in Australian waters under a US flag? Or do you still have to import it?
