1974 Sparkman & Stephens Northstar 30 Sailboat - For Sale, Motivated Sellers!
We're motivated to sell our 1974 Northstar 30 sailboat to someone ready to give her the attention she deserves. Located at the Royal Victoria Yacht Club (RVYC) in Victoria, BC – note: slip not included. This Northstar 30 is a classic racer/cruiser with a storied and successful racing history at the RVYC. We bought her last year as beginner sailors to learn the ropes, and we've put in effort to clean her up and make her functional. She's a capable boat for someone willing to invest time in further improvements. If you're handy and looking for a project boat with potential, she could be a great fit. Specifications LOA: 30’ 11” Beam: 9’ 6” Draft: 5’ 3” Displacement: 8,000 lb Ballast: 3,710 lb Features Main Sail: Good condition with sail cover Genoa: Roller furling in good condition Spinnakers: Two included with spinnaker pole Additional Sails: Main and foresails Winches: 7 Harken winches in good condition Rigging: Lazy jacks, 2 reefing lines and all running rigging led to the cockpit for easy handling and single-handed sailing Lines: New main sheet and traveller lines. Other lines are in good operational condition. Cockpit: Spacious with propane BBQ Galley: 2-burner propane stove with icebox, sink and storage Head: Clean and in good working condition Berths: V-berth and quarter berth, but need cushions Salon: Spacious with fold-down table, 2 large benches / single berths (1 with flip-up extension). Salon cushions are newer and very comfortable. Comms: VHF Radio Nav: Chartplotter and depth sounder Engine: Atomic 4 inboard gasoline engine Mechanical upgrades: New carburetor, control cables, and blower. The engine runs, but it will benefit from further maintenance and upgrades. We've cleaned her extensively, replaced main sheets and traveller lines, scraped the bottom, and improved the engine operation. She sails very well. We're selling her as a project boat for someone eager to continue fixing her up. As new sailors, we enjoyed learning on her, but we're ready to pass her on to someone with more experience or enthusiasm for boat projects. If you're looking for an affordable classic sailboat and don't mind some TLC, come take a look! Make us a fair offer, and she's likely yours.
