My mate is looking at that one. Anyone in QLD knows it? Any idea of a good offer to make on it?
Are you sick of this one already?

Knock it off and you could make a big profit on this one.

If your mate pays me the right money, I'll survey it for him. However, it is on the east coast and he, I assume, is on the west coast. It is not cheap either, so why would he even consider it??
He could buy my S&S 34 for less money than that.
On the west coast the market is very sad
lot of overpriced crap.
My mate has a floating caravan..... Court 650, he got it for next to nothing and he still want roomy he also want a bit of performance.
I am more looking at that type of boat.http://www.boatsales.com.au/boats-for-sale/boatdetails.aspx?R=13190548&Silo=stock&Vertical=boat&Ridx=0&eapi=2
Not sick of the tri.............. had it for about 2 years and I have improved it greatly to become a club race winner. All electrtonic as well. Time for a change!
What is a SS34 ? any pics?
Saying "What is an S&S34?" is like saying, "Who is Jimmy Hendrix?"
Famous design. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S%26S_34
Oh, and en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jimmy_hendrix - just in case. 
Not many S&S 34 this side of the Island 
looks allright shame it is a fixed keel job, you should come and see the price of mooring in WA................ If you are lucky to get one it is about 15k to buy in the Swan with a few bridges to go under (drop mast job) In a marina expect to pay 5k minimum a year.
I have a dry stand and it is close to the ramp so I can keep the mast up.
Dont know where your sailing felix, but the S&S 34's are everywhere you look on the river on race days. There is a nice cole 32's going cheap at South of Perth YC. There's always half a dozen S&S 34's available across Perth. Sellers who are dreamin and genuine bargains on any given day - just got to keep looking.
I do like the look of that Sonata. Pity its in Tassie
Club Membership fees about 1100 + pen about 1500 for a little yacht like that.
If I were looking in that size range and price, I'd be looking at the spacesailor 22/24 or 27. Anywhere from 9K to 27K depending on condition & fruit.
Or what about an S80 (15K-30K - the dodgem cars of the swan river.)
Both these boats have excellent fleets in Perth and therefore you'll get parts as well as expertise whether it be repairs or coaching.
As I have the last of the Swarbrick & Swarbrick built S&S34s, it looks like Cisco and I have the oldest and youngest original build S&S34s.
The three new ones built by Cottesloe Yachts used the original hull moulds but are a different construction and fit out.
Dohhhhhhhhhhhh me! I did not realise that S&S stand for Swarbrick! Had a Pinacle and I still miss her!
Space sailors are nice floating caravans.............. I have a TT720 farrier if I sell I want something that moves fast, I do a fair bit of club racing (every Saturday), also I hate river sailing, it is like a busy freeway!
I am looking for a sport boat on trailer with retractable or pivot daggerboard, I want to have a bit of accomodation to be able to go to Rotto and do a beach moring at the front of the pub!
and you are ofishially un-buggered.
Gee, I created a bit of a fracas there.
To make it even more confusing Glen Swarbrick still operates under the Swarbrick and Swarbrick name despite him being the only Swarbrick. His dad and uncle were the original Swarbrick and Swarbrick and he, and a cousin I think, also worked for them building the S&S34s.
Mike Finn I believe is the driving force behind the new generation of S&S 34s. The company is Cottesloe Yachts.
Well over $100k for a hull and deck and I believe they only build to order.
$158000.00 Was the last price I read ..... in 2010, I believe the upper end of the scale was $360000.00 for a turnkey.
Mike Finn owns the moulds and Cottesloe Yachts. The first three new ones were built at Glenn's place in Henderson. I spent a day there in 2008 with Glenn and the owner of hull 3. I do not know if Glen is still involved but no further boats have come out of the moulds since No 3.
I suspect the figures quoted are about right, they are individually made and cannot be compared to a production boat. Think more in line with Bluewater or even Hallberg-Rassy. The hulls are vacuum infused, less resin, lighter by a few 100 kilos and no aeration in the glass so stronger. No 3, Blondie, had a very high quality fit out for both racing and cruising.
Blondie has blitzed the WA offshore series for the last season or two. Not bad for Olin's 45 year old design.
