I realize this isn't really the place to list a boat, but...
The woman who lost her husband in yesterday's tsunami just wants to go home to her family and is hoping to sell the boat without delay.
The vessel is a 1984 Freedom 39 Pilothouse Schooner and I can assure you the boat is well equiped, in turn-key condition, sitting un-dammaged in Pago Pago and stands ready to continue. There is a sister-ship currently listed at
www.yachtworld.com at $99K. The owner said she doesn't want market value... she just wants to take her husband home and get over this terrible ordeal. (

If anyone reading this is ready to go cruising... instead of just reading about it - now would be a good time to do both yourself and a sailor in need a big favor. There are two weekly non-stop flights from Honolulu and the prime cruising grounds of Tonga, Fiji, New Caledonia, Vanuatu, New Zealand & Australia are all nearby and within easy reach.
On behalf of the owner - please feel free to contact me directly for more details and I will reply immediately.
Thanks.
