Carl Alberg designed these offshore, bluewater sailboats from 1961 to 1967.
Eclipse was built in 1965 and is partly through an extensive re-fit to prep her for a solo-circumnavigation.
The original atomic 4 gas engine has been removed to prepare for a Yanmar 40 hp. There is no engine in the boat right now - hence the low price!
Extensive Sail inventory. Mostly Hood brand sails. 1 new mainsail, 4 jibs and genoas (1 brand new), 2 spinakers. Dodger and Bimini in good condition.
The roller reefing boom will need some work. Boom is spruce, mast is aluminum.
There are no electronics on the boat.
Raritan Head, new sink, 2 20 gallon water tanks.
Rigging is 1/4" stainless and was redone in 2001.
She will need to be hauled and bottom painted.
This is a project, but not a major one. Several weeks of diligent work and you would have an incredible yacht. I never dreamed I would sell her, but I am re-locating for work and will no longer be living near the water.
Serious inquiry only as I am busy and want to sell her quickly to a capable and motivated buyer.
Thank you.
