Description
A 27’ 1973 Viksund Columbi, which is a Norwegian built double-ended motorsailer. The Viksund is a classic; with its thick fiberglass hull, they're known to be as strong and sea-worthy as they come.
This was our family boat and it is well traveled. As children, the boat was frequently used and, at one point, our family of 4 lived on the boat for 5 weeks. Unfortunately, our father can no longer maintain the boat and it been sitting for about 5 years. My brother and I started to work on restoration, and as much as we’d love to, we don’t have the time, money, or knowledge to bring the boat back to where it should be.
The cabin features a salon with seating for 4. The table drops to make a full bed. There is a V-Berth with a large wrap-around shelf above. There is a galley with a hand pumped sink, propane stove and the interior steering wheel. There is a head with a hand pumped toilet and sink.
SEA WORTHY? YOU BETCHA!
