Description

Must sell as I'm off to welly.

A much loved Nova 28 called Karelia. I bought her as a project boat and wasted far too much time and money. Yanmar 12 inboard. All sails lines etc etc etc etc. so you are good to sail away immediately.

Comes with cool dingy and a new outboard. New lifejackets.

Mooring also included at Northcote point. Can also sign over the dingy locker at the same location. Which makes life really easy.

Anti fouled about 10 months ago.

No osmosis, no rot. But still lots of jobs to do.

Give me a call to discuss if you want to get into the details.

Questions & Answers

  • FYI - I bought here for 9k. Spent 20k on her. Seller comment Sunday, 14 April 2024
  • What condition is the hull in? Any osmosis? Hours on the motor? Looks freshly painted too. Nice looking boat. r******2 (64)09:41 am, Mon, 15 Apr So a bit of a run down on the history: the guy before me bought it as a project boat, stripped the hull, applied a new coat of resin, and then applied an international epoxy paint system. new bungs, hoses etc. he did a very good job. If you talk to the guys about it a Northocote, they will confirm the quality of his work. Like all projects, he ran out of time, and i took over. I then stripped the deck, fixed a couple spots of rott, with glass. then out a coat of resin over everything, then ... bobbob87 (20) • Monday, 15 April 2024
  • did the international 2 pot paint system, got undercoat, couple of mid coats, and a top coat. I was half way through, more top coat on the deck. so she still needs a lift scuff and more top coat (i was putting navy blue on the top). Had someone redo the wring to the batteries and bilge. and i painted the interior. Long story short - in terms of osmosis and rot, there was non as of the last time i had her out for an antifoul which was last year, and the small rot i found i did a good job on.

  • still lots of small jobs to do, but the bones are good. Seller comment Monday, 15 April 2024
  • What’s the annual cost for the mooring/dingy locker? t*********2 (102)01:35 pm, Mon, 15 Apr I own the Mooring, just need to get the WOF with council. I just spent 1.6k on maintenance as well. So she should be good for a bit. Dingy locker is 180 a year. Absolute bargain! (The waiting list is forever so this a way to get one) bobbob87 (20) • Monday, 15 April 2024

  • Hi Open to a site visit? Dean s*******6 (1)04:51 pm, Tue, 16 Apr Hi Dean, Sure can. Could do Sunday? bobbob87 (20) • Tuesday, 16 April 2024
  • Is it a fibreglass hull ? What condition are the sails ? How many Sails Is the engine a good runner ? t***1 (94)07:17 pm, Tue, 16 Apr It’s a glass hull over timber ‘beams’ apologies for the incorrect terminology. Glass over ply top. I’ve used the sails all summer. No rips, tears or obvious signs of wear. But I’m assuming they are old. Engineer starts every time. Again she is old but I’ve not had a single problem. Exhaust is clean. And I’ve run her loads. bobbob87 (20) • Tuesday, 16 April 2024
  • Why don’t you take it to Wellington? r****0 (180)08:05 pm, Wed, 17 Apr The cost and stress of the whole thing tbh. (I’ve only been sailing a year so don’t think sailing it down would be a god idea ha) bobbob87 (20) • Wednesday, 17 April 2024
  • So will ownership of the mooring pass over to the new owner also? s***********8 (98)11:36 am, Fri, 19 Apr Yes bobbob87 (20) • Friday, 19 April 2024
  • Hi, does it have a stove and toilet. h*******4 (187)12:40 pm, Sat, 20 Apr Toilet is new, no stove tho. bobbob87 (20) • Saturday, 20 April 2024
  • Could you please explain the W.O.F for the mooring that needs to be got. h*******4 (187)12:47 pm, Sat, 20 Apr I’m no expert so please do your own research with AC. But every 3 years you have to get your mooring inspected. Last inspection was September 22. Can send you the inspection report and certificate. bobbob87 (20) • Saturday, 20 April 2024
  • Thanks. h*******4 (187)12:53 pm, Sat, 20 Apr
  • Ok, what is the number of the mooring. h*******4 (187)12:54 pm, Sat, 20 Apr NM040 bobbob87 (20) • Saturday, 20 April 2024
  • Does it have squabs. h*******4 (187)01:59 pm, Sat, 20 Apr It’s does. I’ll upload a photo bobbob87 (20) • Saturday, 20 April 2024
  • Is it on mooring rite now. m******9 (34)07:49 pm, Sun, 21 Apr Yes bobbob87 (20) • Sunday, 21 April 2024
  • If the mooring was done last Sept 22 which you spent 1.6 k on. It's good for another 2.5 years. Is the Auckland Council lease fee paid? It's roughly 240 $ a year . Due in June. The Auckland Council owns the mooring. You own the mooring hardware.There's no WOF to sort out with the Council. Once the mooring contractors service you're mooring and you pay them. They send the report to the Harbour Master.Thank. d*********2 (5)07:51 pm, Sun, 21 Apr Thanks for the info Daniel. Much appreciated! Mooring fees are up to date. I’ll have to check my records of when the next payment is due bobbob87 (20) • Sunday, 21 April 2024
