Kathy and I had the pleasure of seeing Liberty and meeting Stan and
his lovely wife. We are not in the market for a boat right now so
our visit was a social call and a chance to see a 35. The boat shows
very well and has some nice features like an Antal track system. If
anyone is looking for a shoal draft 35 I’d check to see if Liberty
is still available.

If some of you have been tracking my letters, you know we’d been
searching for the perfect Freedom 35 since December. We looked at
several boats in Florida, where we live, and we were really set
on “Liberty,” a beautifully kept boat in Sarasota. But before we
made up our mind we decided to check out “Nike”, a dark blue boat
in
R.I. (our Pearson 36 is dark blue; we’re very partial to the
color)
She was equally nice but what really clinched the deal for us was
that her slip was paid for through November! We began dreaming of
sailing in the waters around Narragansett Bay, Block Island,
Martha’s Vineyard and all sorts of spots we never thought we’d be
able to visit. We could not resist the idea of escaping Florida’s
heat and exploring the cool waters of New England. If not for
that,
we probably would have bought “Liberty” for she is clean, well
maintained, all systems working, nicely outfitted.Several of you wrote us telling us all about various F35s that are
for sale and that you had personally checked out. Those letters
saved us hours of research and miles of travel. Thank you. I
thought
I would return the global favor and put out the word on Liberty
for
anyone else who is looked for a sweet boat.Faith
