Parting out winches-blocks-hydraulics etc. from 55' Lapworth aluminum ocean racer...

Parting out the hardware and equipment from 55' Lapworth aluminum ocean racer.  Blocks, winches- lots of "flat tops" and several large "self-tailers."  Custom titanium 3 speed sheet winches and turning blocks, hydraulics, a dozen brand new black anodized aluminum Barient winch drums and much more.  Brand new (been sitting for ten years) Nanni (Mercedes) 5 cylinder diesel engine that had been kept as a spare. Several spinnakers and heavy dacron mainsail.  Harken mainsheet track and large Lewmar mainsheet track with stops and heavy duty car.  Most items too heavy for "grand prix" lightweight ocean races but would be ideal for large custom cruising boats.  Priced to sell!  THIS DIESEL ENGINE IS SOLD

SAVE 50% ON TWO NANNI MARINE DIESEL ENGINES !!!

Nanni marine diesel engines.  Unique circumstances make two diesel engines available at very reasonable prices.  My guess, we have them priced at about HALF of what they would cost new today.  They were purchased for boats and projects that got never completed and thus were never installed. It's my guess they have been sitting in a warehouse for ten years or more.  The blue one is 120HP with a turbo, it appears complete and has the bell housing but no gear box.  We have it priced at $5900.00.  The gray one is 80 HP-naturally aspirated and has a Hurth gear box.  We have it priced at $6900.00.  These engines are being sold as is where is without a warranty of any kind.  It's a buyer beware opportunity?  If you have a qualified mechanic, we will let him check them out and attempt to start them sitting on the pallets.  Owner of engines is bringing the manuals and instrument panels.  For more information google Nanni Marine engines do your own research.  We have a forklift for
loading.   BOTH THESE DIESEL ENGINES ARE SOLD.  ONE WENT TO CANADA, THE OTHER TO SAN FRANCISCO.  BOTH BUYERS EXTREMELY HAPPY

GREAT BUYS ON ANCHOR WINDLASSES-SELF-TAILING WINCHES-PORT LIGHTS AND HATCHES !!!!!

Top is the popular Lofrans 1500 pound pull windlass.  Our very modest price is $2295.00.  I've had one on my Down East 38 for four years.  It hasn't given a speck of trouble.  Next is the Lofrans manual windlass for boats up to about 30 feet.  They list for about $1200.00, we think $849.00 is an even better price.  After is the Lewmar Stainless Steel 1000 pound pull windless.  We stole them at a builder's close out and are still able to make a tiny profit at $695.00.  List price at the Big Box stores is over $1200.00.  That's a Lewmar 40 pictured, I just lowered the price on the 40's to $595.00 and once again we can offer a limited number of the 30's at $495.00.  These are the hard to find and very expensive chrome plated BRONZE two speed self tailers.  Purchase a pair and we'll toss in a $90.00 matching lock-in handle FREE!!  That's an older style 40 pictured, the latest models have the tops a bit different and don't have that big "washer looking cap" on top.  The hatches are as follows.  The small ones fit a hole size of 10.25 by 13.75 inches with a price of $125.00 each.  The middle size fits into a cut-out of 16.5 by 19.5 inches for a price of $195.00 each.  Our largest one fits into a cut-out of 20 by 23 inches for a price of $245.00 each.  We have VERY LIMITED quantities of all of the above and these prices hold to ONLY THE STOCK ON HAND.  Ten of the large hatches sold in the first 5 days of un-packing.  All items are plus shipping.  It's totally amazing, our little marine junk store is getting a great supply of brand new FIRST QUALITY boating equipment.  Looks as if I missed telling you about the Lewmar opening ports.  They fit a cut-out of 7 by 12 inches and are sort of rectangular with rounded corners.  Price is $115.00 each. Please know, we appreciate your business.

Fifty five foot (possibly a bit longer) aluminum rig. $5000.00 OBO

Was a lovely evening for the BYC beer can races in Newport Harbor.  Wind pretty much out of the west so most boats had to throw in a few tacks to make the weather mark.  Note:  Anyone looking for a good 55' mast, boom and Harken roller furling system let me know.  I'm helping a friend sell it. Pretty sure it was stepped on deck. Owner motivated to find it a new home ???  Double spreaders, may have been set up for in mast furling??  Boom set up for loose footed mainsail?  Pics and more specs to anyone interested.  Harken furling system appears excellent, foils hack sawed off so some adaption will be necessary...We stepped off the length so it's between 55 and 60 feet...
