If you have a traditional sailboat aesthetic, appreciate the strength of overbuilt hulls from the 80s and want everything else on the boat to be from this century, this may just be the boat for you. The current owner purchased the unfinished hull and spent the last few years finishing the boat.  Everything attached to the hull is either new or modern with almost every fitting, port hole and through hull re-bedded in the last 3 years. With a suite of B&G electronics, new wiring, plumbing, systems, cabinetry, etc. This boat is a perfect blend of older where you want it for a strong, over-built hull and new so you know everything works and the next owner will be putting the hours on everything. Even the Yanmar diesel has less than 25 hrs.  It all comes together in Coddiwomple a 2021 Coastal 34. Coddiwomple is an English word that means "to travel in a purposeful manner towards a vague destination". A great name for a great boat.     The owner comes from a family of boatbuilders and has provided the marine industry with high-quality services throughout his life. He utilized his industry contacts to ensure his 'retirement' boat was perfect. Carpenters, marine electricians, mechanics, sailmakers, etc. were brought in as required to ensure all the work was completed to a high standard.   With approximately 20 hrs. on the reliable Yanmar engine, oversized rigging and new systems throughout, this boat was launched in 2021 and is a beauty. The top-sides paint is about the only thing the owner didn't finish prior to deciding to sell.   Located in Nanaimo with assumable moorage with marina management approval.     

There are two things to ask an offshore sailboat: Will you get me there safely? Will you get me there in comfort? SALINA-J says, “Oh yeah! Let’s sail ALL the seas!” She was designed with both form and function in mind. She’s a cutter-rigged, centre cockpit, full-keel ship with clean lines. Her keel helps her track well in a crossing, the berths are snug, the systems are simple and robust. Everything about this boat says, “Let’s get offshore!” Given that she was only launched in 2018, she has a lot of history. A labour of love, the steel hull was built in 1985. The steel was USA, pre-primed, weldable, and professionally done. Then she sat for years. Eventually work began anew, and she was outfitted by all the good people: Blackline for the rigging, Leitch & McBride for the sails, and a local craftsman/artist for the interior. Everything was completed to a meticulously high standard. The champagne hit the bow in 2018 to much fanfare and delight. A 2019 Solé 33HP engine was installed, and there have only been 54 hours put on it since then. Though she was built with a family of four in mind, she was also built for single handing, as all good offshore boats should be. The interior is bright and gleaming. Honduran mahogany is varnished to a high shine. Yellow cedar accents here and there remind you that she’s a West Coast girl. Soft green upholstery will give you something to look at besides blue when you’re surrounded by blue water and blue skies (a Lin Pardey trick). This Pastime 36 is a boat that wants to get you out there. She’s sturdy and safe, clean and comfortable. She’s an honest ship. So, if you want to sail the seven seas too, give me a call and I’ll introduce you to SALINA-J. Trina
