I AM FROM CENTRAL ILLINOIS AND WILL BE AT BLACK LAKE FROM 7/12/2019 to 7/19/2019 AND THE BOAT WILL BE AVAILABLE TO SEE AND PURCHASE DURING THIS TIME
1980 AMF Sunbird sailboat for sail. The Sunbird is a fractional sloop daysailer, swing keel, easily trailered and taken anywhere you want to sail.
Will hold 4 adults or 4-5 people if you have children. This boat is very easy to launch and learn to sail. This Sunbird leaks no water and is perfect for a weekend or hobby sailor.
The trailer is galvanized and would be $1000 itself to buy brand new.
Also included in the price is a Mercury 3.3 hp outboard as pictured.
This boat has been a great family activity but unfortunately my crew (the kids) are older and getting ready for college and its time for it to move on.
I purchased the boat in 2013 for $600 (no motor) in rough condition. Since then I have:
repaired centerboard
repaired centerboard trunk damage due to improper trailer rollers and bunks
replaced trailer rollers and bunks to prevent future damage
replaced trailer lights and tires
replaced all running rigging
sanded and painted hull and deck with AMP 6600 high durability paint
You will get everything equipment wise you need to sail right away:
