1981 CP-16 For Sale

[alan]

There's nothing, absolutely nothing, half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats
They say the two happiest days of a sailor's life are the day he buys a boat and the day he sells it. Unfortunately that will not be the case with me as it is with a great deal of regret that I must put my 1981 Com-Pac, "New L'Attitude", up for sale. My wife's illness and my on-going role as her 24/7 "help giver" has prevented me from sailing at all this year and will continue to prevent me from sailing for years to come. And, truth be told, we could use the additional cash to help defray our on-going medical costs.

1981 Hutchin's Com-Pac 16 sailboat
Original galvanized trailer
1984(?)5hp Evinrude ob (I used it twice)

I brought her down from Michigan to Omaha, Nebraska in 2002 for $2650. Willing to start the negotiations at $2400 (unless you'd rather simply give me my asking price!!!)

** I'll even throw in the portable power supply (... plus my sailing gloves if they'll fit you.)
++ OK, you can have the air mattress, too
## alright - you get the leftover sunbrella material, too ... enough to make a whole new set if you like
