PRUDENCE, Southern Cross 35 is NOW on the market (2/17/10)


I am pleased to announce the 1985 Southern Cross 35, PRUDENCE, is now on the market as of February 17, 2010.

She was built by CE Ryder in Rhode Island. You can see my story about her in previous blog posts. Also, her previous owners' blog is still up and is one of the best detailed accounts of how a Southern Cross 35 sails and what they are capable of. See: http://www.sailblogs.com/member/ashiya/?show=fulltoc

Now, I will say it again. DO NOT WAIT TO CALL ABOUT THIS BOAT! The last time she was offered for sale, she was on the market one week and never made it to Yacht World. I have a great deal of information about PRUDENCE and I have sold her 3 times so far. All of her owners are fantastic people and are more than willing to share their knowledge about the boat. You may say she has her own cult following! This boat has been all over the Caribbean and Atlantic and is probably the best known Southern Cross 35 in the world.

CALL or email me RIGHT NOW! 484-576-0804 or Bill@crusaderyachts.com

You drive a day to go see your most recent marine love interest, roll into the marina at the appointed time and meet your broker. Then, it hits you. The boat you"re going to see is not in the water, it's on land. AND, there is a huge ladder that you have to climb up, before you get to see it. Sometimes, seeing a boat on land is a necessary evil and sometimes pictures on the the various yacht listing sites look much better than real life. It's pretty hard to get any idea how a boat will behave underway, unless you have already been on a similar boat. We"ve taken some of the guessing out of the equation by starting to put many of our boats on YouTube.com . Like this Beneteau 50, 2 cabin owner's version, in Annapolis now.
