1972 Colvin Gazelle 42 Junk Schooner

Heres a rare opprotunity to own a fine example of Tom Colvins most popular design. This 1972 Gazelle, a chinese junk rigged schooner that has been well loved and upkept for its entirety. She has successfully sailed the North and South Pacific many times over. s/v Vagrant has been gone through repeated refits and shows very well. She semes to have one of the finest finishes down below for a Gazelle and has a very comfortable layout. She comes with many spares and accesories to take off cruising now! Or keep her in the Pacific Northwest as a unique first or second home or daysailer. The steel hull brings great peace of mind for navigating the log strewn pnw at night and the shallow draft opens up way more anchorage opportunities around the world. Shes the jewel of every anchorage, and under sail she gets continous nods to her romantic lines. She is berthed in East Sound now for a sea trial.

The forward v berth sleeps two with built in cabinetry with two portlights for ventilation. The head has a deluxe new composting toilet with 12V fan. Smells great. Comes with a supply of cococoir. The salon sleeps 2 with lee cloths plus a quarterberth to port. The aft cabin sleeps two and houses the chart table/desk zone/radar along with all the spare sails and PFDs. The engine room has pass through access to both cabins. The standing and running rigging are in great condition. This boat needs nothing to go cruising again. It visited the Gulf Islands twice this summer. The Isuzu with fixed 3 blade prop is very dependable and economical. The solar is extremely effecient. When cruising, we run the fridge 24/7 without any need for alternative power generation. That is why the new shore power equipment on board was never installed. The three heat sources are by propane and diesel and engine coolant. She would make a fine liveaboard and is fully insulated. Your go anywhere waterfront tiny home. Vagrant has proven to be very low maintenance. She is water tight and all topside paint is in good condition. If you have ever wanted to re-spark your love for sailing, the junk r
