Freedom 28 Cat Ketch for sale

Posted by celij (junk@…>)

I just bought a Freedom 40/40, as a result the beloved family boat is
for sale. It is a Freedom 28 Cat Ketch, 1983, Hull #31, $23,000.

Some specs:

  • batteries (2 * 6 volt golf cart batteries) (2007)
  • new engine battery (2005)
  • Garmin color GPSMAP 498 chartplotter/depth sounder -
    https://buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?pID=370 - (2007)
  • Natures head toilet (2008) - composting toilet, best thing to happen
    to boating since sails
  • new Main & Mizzen sails (1999)
  • new refrigeration (1999),
  • new Perkins engine & fuel tank (1999)
  • new electrical panel (12v & 110v) & rewiring (1999)
  • new diesel heater (1999)
  • new stainless steel port holes (1999)
  • new Autopilot (1999)
  • new Stereo (1999)
  • new bilge pump (2008)
  • fenders
  • 2 anchors, chain & line
  • swim ladder
  • dock lines
  • spares for many items
  • Alcohol stove (the simple/good kind - which was standard)

The sails are fully batten with extra roach (not sure what the
technical expression is). I have the original sails and battens as
back ups. There is also a “blooper” sail. Carbon fiber masts with
aluminum booms. There is a pilot berth & a cabin heater in place of
the dinette - this works well because we can get 6 people to sleep on
the boat. We use a folding table in between the two settees. It
works well enough for my wife and I and 4 kids (but the 40/40 works
better).

Pictures upon request.

Thanks - john
