Re: WHICH TO BUY, F32, 35 PEDRICK OR 36/38?

After all this time for me to reply, thanks so much for your input! My wife has a blood issue which tires her out. Mainly she was trying to redo the teak along with cleaning the interior and interior teak, hull and replacing the lettering on each side of the bow. The boat also had a teak framed wind...

Re: WHICH TO BUY, F32, 35 PEDRICK OR 36/38?

Looks like I lost track of this thread a few years ago so maybe no one cares anymore, but... We ended up buying a Gulfstar 39 Sailmaster. Neat boat but was a little more work than my wife could handle. We sold it and are back in the Freedom quest among other designs that would be good for this area....

Re: REPLACEMENT MAST BUILDERS AND COSTS?

I called Composite Engineering. A ball park price for a Freedom 35 Pedrick mast is $38K to $39K. Wiring and extra attachments are additional. Shipping could be as low as $1500 if the mast is carried by a company delivering rowing shells from coast to coast during regattas.

Re: WHICH TO BUY, F32, 35 PEDRICK OR 36/38?

I'll check out the thread. Another boat I like is a Gulfstar 39 Sailmaster but maybe I shouldn't mention that on a Freedom forum... For an older boat, 1981/1982, they're pretty classy and from what I hear, well built and good sailing boats. Do you know anything about them?

Re: WHICH TO BUY, F32, 35 PEDRICK OR 36/38?

What kind of boat did you deliver and how long did it take to bring it up? Do you mostly motor? Do you do that regularly? Do you mostly follow the 100 fathom line and duck in to infrequent ports if the weather turns bad? Was it fairly calm?

REPLACEMENT MAST BUILDERS AND COSTS?

Hi. I've searched previous posts and found some info around this question. Looks like Composite Engineering is one company that builds new masts. Is anyone aware of others, ideally in the NW or west coast? Does anyone have a ball park idea what an new mast would cost for a Freedom 35 Pedrick or 36? ...

Re: WHICH TO BUY, F32, 35 PEDRICK OR 36/38?

Thanks for the reply, Camino. Nice to hear that the wing keel may work well for me.

Did your boat have any core damage?

Did you have to do any mast repairs?

Any idea if masts area available if it comes to that?

Thanks.

SEEKING TIM OF THE F35 PEDRICK "TIMELESS"

Hi, Is Tim, who used to own the Freedom 35 Timeless, still around? I'd like to ask questions about Timeless in particular. Please PM me if you get a chance.
Thanks.
