Introducing Sexy Sultry Sailing Vessel Jezebel
(Check out her videos at https://www. Youtube. Com/@sssvjezebel )
Jezebel is an uniquely customised and strategically outfitted adventure-sailing craft.
Owing to her custom-built dodger/coach-house, she is the only 23' boat around boasting over SIX FEET OF HEADROOM (as well as Kratky-style Non-Circulating Hydroponic Gardens!!! Imagine sailing up to an island and being THE ONLY ONE THERE with FRESH GREENS!!!)
Owing to her custom-built tabernacle mast-step, her mast can be easily lowered/raised by one person
(see "How I Inspect My Rig" video here: https://www. Youtube. Com/watch?v=Xr1vgSWJdgM )
Owing to her custom made "stilts, " she can be beached at high tide and remain upright on the sand when the tide goes out!
GET THIS:
WITH A LOWERING MAST, AND STILTS FOR DRYING OUT,
YOU CAN ACCESS ALL PARTS OF THE BOAT ON YOUR OWN--AT YOUR LEISURE!
YOU'LL RARELY NEED TO HAUL OUT AT A BOATYARD!!!
... Moving on...
SSSV Jezebel can sleep four (2-3 is ideal)
She includes:
-an assortment of sails (including spare main, multiple head-sails, two symmetrical spinnakers & pole)
-5 anchors (3 brand-name Danforths for Bahamian mooring, 1 Lewmar Delta as her bower, 1 generic DC Delta as a kedge)
-Spare anchor line & chains & shackles
-Lots of spare parts (blocks, hanks, cords, sliders, hinges, cleats, sail cloth, etc. )
-A tooldbox full of hand tools
-A collection of the necessary 18v power tools: angle-grinder, orbital sander, drill, jigsaw, & vacuum
-Spare touch up paints, varnish, solvents, sand-paper, etc.
-Custom made UV-resistant shade cloth for the summer sun
-Custom sewn UV-resistant wind-scoop for the summer heat
-Stowable wood-burning fireplace for the winter cold
(with through-deck chimney mounting)
(can be used while under way)
-Two person sit-on-top kayak with anchor, paddles, & spares
Electricity:
-Through an MPPT Charge Controller, her 120W solar panel charges two isolated 50 Ah AGM batteries (approximately 2 years old)
-These, then, power her house, nav & anchor lights; her depth sounder; her Raymarine ST1000 Tiller pilot (it's junk--I've already repaired it twice--blame Raymarine! But, if you buy a new one, I've already installed the MadMan wireless remote system: you can steer the boat from up on deck with a key fob hanging around your neck!! Pretty sweet!); her Bluetooth Amp & marine speakers; her USB charging ports and her 500W inverter.
-The inverter is wired to two different power points which can be used to charge laptops and the 18v battery (for power tools & vacuum).
SSSV Jezebel spent the past decade adventure-sailing up and down the Queensland Coast--from the Tweed to Bowen; out to the reefs and countless islands; and up nearly every creek, river, and waterway in between!!!
With the right captain(s) she is quite a capable little toy boat!
Now that she is back among the hundreds of beautiful islands of Moreton Bay, she is ready to become the perfect (and perfectly affordable) liveaboard & learning boat for her next romantic adventure-seeking couple.
Note: she also includes pots/pans, water storage/portage containers, fishing gear, & lots of odds and ends for boat life (food dryers/hammocks, battery-powered spotlight, speargun, kayak anchor, guitar and ukulele with custom made/fitted wall racks, etc., etc. )
Also note: vessel is currently unregistered as she is and has been motor-free (meaningshe falls outside Queensland registration threshold). However, her transom is built to receive an outboard
(and I have an old 5hp you can have if you want it--but then you'll have to register her).
TONS of additional photos/videos (and even 3 volumes of photo-logs!) available on request.
Inspections welcome.
