Ce que couvre cette vidéo
A family of three searching for a full-time liveaboard vessel in Florida inspects and purchases a 1979 Bristol 45.5 named Trumpeter. The boat, located on the hard at a marina in Fort Pierce, features a new Yanmar engine and generator, with an interior layout including two aft berths and a forward berth. During the inspection, the buyers evaluate the hull and deck condition, noting the vessel requires a bottom job but remains in good structural shape. They negotiate the purchase directly with the owner without a broker, agreeing on a price that includes the seller’s assistance with rigging and sail installation. Following the sale, the new owners initiate the United States Coast Guard documentation process to register the vessel and rename it Plan C. The purchase process highlights the importance of inspecting a vessel on the hard to assess the hull and underwater gear before finalizing an offer.
