34' Wilbur Cruiser

[Eastporter]

This seems like a lot of boat for the money- especially if looking for a cruiser.

I spoke to the broker last summer when this boat was on. I think there was a health issue with the guy that owned it and his wife was too busy to sell but it needs a bunch of cosmetic work and I think its a 10kt cruiser which was too slow for me. Gorgeous boat though and great layout for overnights.

Also seems like it might be a candidate for a repower in the next couple years depending on how the motor checks out. 27 years in the bilge is long time for anything.

If that hull is in good shape and the engine is serviceable just old......one of the best deals I've seen in along time.

Really pretty hulls. There is one nearby to me that I admire regularly.
Is that a uniquely Wilbur hull, or is it based on something else?

Nice looking boat indeed, assuming the motor is sound, how many more hours are expected out of this motor?

Thanks

She is off the market now

Been a long road - 4.5 months from first visit to ownership. She will stay in Oxford for a few weeks from some much needed service than home to CT.

i was thinking i read somewhere that wilburs farther in law was an ellis and some of hulls were a ellis design. ellis boat and wilbur are across the road from each other

 

[swwind]

I don't know much about the history of the design, but I will say the people at Wilbur were VERY helpful to us in terms of sharing information about the original build to help get her ready for sea trial.

Very nice! I really like the 34 Wilbur. Just couldn't find one that I could afford that was set-up the way I wanted.

 

[chortle]

Good luck with her, she has good bones, should be a nice cruiser.

We need some more pics of that boat. Congrats on it. Best of luck.

This boat is on the Market in Virginia. Anyone looked at her recently or know current condition?

Congrats! My broker sent that listing earlier this summer and it's what got me thinking about a flybridge. So glad we went that route.

So are you running her home on her bottom? If so, do a thread on the delivery cruise!

Congrats again - beautiful boat.
