Live-Aboard Sailboat-Dirt Cheap Trailerable Cruiser 27' Nor'Sea | Harbor Yacht Tours

[@tedhitsman841]

This channel is really good because of the variety of boats presented. Keep going on finding and showing really different boat styles and price ranges.

[@HarborYachtTours]

Thank you very much couldn’t have said it better myself lol. I’ve been back-and-forth on whether I should just focus on trawlers, but I like to keep it interesting so hopefully the views keep coming and I can do all shapes and sizes.

[@tedhitsman841]

@@HarborYachtTours Yup: all shapes and sizes!

[@luisadriandelgado5343]

this guy those an absolutely awesome job showing and explaining things on this Nor'Sea 27... keep it going...

[@HarborYachtTours]

Much appreciated!

[@captainmother1268]

That wood cover on a gas stove - comedy genius! What could go wrong? Thanks for taking us to see the boat....It won't sell at that price but interesting to see.😁

[@HarborYachtTours]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@wahid-lg1kk]

People tend to put the wood cover down after the stove has been turned off

[@originalfiremancancelled7303]

I watched a few of your videos actually might even be interested in some of the boats but this particular one I’m just going wow wow he definitely has the price at the I do not want to sell it price….

[@wahid-lg1kk]

These boats can take any weather

[@JeffreyDRein]

Was the footage before hurricane Milton?

[@HarborYachtTours]

Yes but after helene

[@LiberaceProtege]

Once again this is one of those "every time Bryan posts a new boat it's now my new favorite boat of them all" things. Such a massively cool interior with all that elegant wood. Just enough space actually, right? I like it a lot. But... $25K???? Yikes dude. Needs $20,000 minimum. Then in today's market it will be worth about $25K. Sooooo... $5,000 to $10,000 as is TOPS.

[@HarborYachtTours]

Yes, she needs a lot of loving

[@LiberaceProtege]

Hey Bryan... How did this particular boat fare in Hurricane Milton? Did it survive??? Really curious about this one. TIA

[@HarborYachtTours]

Yes it did this was filmed between the 2 canes. Might have a little more H2O in that aft cabin though. Hopefully someone is looking after it.

[@seanrhone5306]

Wonder the cost to keep her on the hard there?

[@HarborYachtTours]

Not sure but it’s the cheapest yard around

😎✌️

[@HarborYachtTours]

Thanks

[@kiowa1508]

WHERE’S SANDY!?

[@HarborYachtTours]

We’re heading out to do a nice Hatteras today. I Wasn’t sure if this boat was good enough for her lol.

[@claudeross126]

How does a frog end up on top of the sailboat? 😅😅😅

[@HarborYachtTours]

Hop hop

[@kevinbugden7995]

Nice boat but way to expense. Looks like it may have osmosis in hull which will cost in time and money too repair. Good boat for a DIY if it can be bought at the right price.

[@wahid-lg1kk]

That's not expensive for that boat. That boat can do the roaring forties and shrug it off. That's the normal price when in that condition. Perfect condition will be in the $40k region.

[@montanadan2524]

As a expernced boat owner, all I see is issues, wasted effort and a whole lot of money.

[@LiberaceProtege]

I'm interested in what issues you see in this boat. I'd appreciate your opinion if you could please. TIA

[@montanadan2524]

@@LiberaceProtege The boat appears to have received no regular maintence for a while and you should expect problems everywhere and with everything. This maybe ok if you plan to have it relocated to your home and you bring it back as time and income allow, figure 2x the listed price and who knows how many years. At the end of the day you have a small boat with a stateroom separated from the living area - a deal breaker for me.

[@LiberaceProtege]

@@montanadan2524 Thanks so much for that. $50,000 needed in repairs you say?

[@montanadan2524]

​@@LiberaceProtegeNo I was actually thinking 50k+ all in including the purchase price. The bottom job alone may run ten if you pay a yard (take off everything including the gel coat, repair the osmosis, fairing, two coats epoxy barrior and three coats of bottom paint). The standing rigging doesn't look original but I question the installation (double automatics on the shrouds and the rear stay chain plates missing the bottom thru bolts?) Call in a professional rigger at the very least and hope to get off at $3-5k for replacement if required. May as well freshin up the running rigging for another $1.5k. The boats on the hard and the deep bildge is full (I suspecting it is under the rear stateroom as would be typical for a full keeled boat) so something -the deck, hatches, ports, or fastener are leaking - lots of labor to find and repair as you end up resealing everything. Keep in mind there is a lot of gear under there that may not like being suberged. he navigation electronics are trash but im seeing a lot of folks get by with a tablet ($200 with built in GPS running Navionics subsription at $30 a year) or a smart phone as the boat plotter so you would just need to replace depth, speed thru water, and wind instruments, maybe 1$1-2k if you do it. Want a new radio with AIS drop another 2.5k. The current solar system is insufficient to do anything but possibly maintain the battery. Your gonna be into panels, controller and new AGM batterys a couple thousand. Want lithium, most likely the current controler, alternator, power wiring, fusing, shore power battery charger are incompatible. The little two cylinder Yanmar and gear box are probably fine but I would want to hear it from a cold start and go thru gears but the props long gone or it would be fitted. An on and on...... I'm not saying the boat is not worth what they are asking, I'm just saying it's for me it's long way from taking a trip.

[@LiberaceProtege]

@@montanadan2524 Thanks man. I really appreciate that.

[@tedhitsman841]

Price is high. This would have to be launched and sailed before buying. I’ve seen better and newer comparables at that price.

[@mountainmandale1587]

I agree with you. Pricey to say the least.

[@pauliefromphilly]

Dude... for real. After you've showed all those boats wrecked after the hurricanes and you're recommending an old boat for a liveaboard??? Have you been to Gulfport???? How about the story of the couple that moved from Kentucky and lost everything from Debbie. Not cool at all
