Re: Sailboat on the beach at Treehouse?
In hindsight, it probably would have been better to secure the moorings... :concern:
Re: Sailboat on the beach at Treehouse?
Now that it is out of the water..... Does anyone know what happened to it next ???
Re: Sailboat on the beach at Treehouse?
In hindhindsight, probably shouldn't have spent all that money on a boat if they weren't prepared to take care of it properly.

It's in the alleyway behind drifters. The owners rented a spot behind Negril adventure divers. They plan on taking several months to do the needed maintenance and repairs and then launching it back into the water from there.

Thanks for the update !!!!!!
Re: Sailboat on the beach at Treehouse?
Nice to see it out and safe. Hopefully damage is minimal.
#223-easy to sit back and be an armchair quarterback and point accusatory fingers of blame, but if we don’t know the whole story then.....
At the end of December she was safely anchored opposite Negril Palms for a long period of time awaiting parts/repairs....unfortunately sometimes weather happens!

Or perhaps the owner is a bull****ter who keeps telling the same story. I'd bet that boat sits there for some time if not ever.

Then why would the boat have been moved in the first place? That was quite a production for a BS artist.... :congratulatory:
Re: Sailboat on the beach at Treehouse?
She is a beautiful boat. Oh man, I wish I could afford something like that. Even better, I wish I had a friend that could afford something like that.
Re: Sailboat on the beach at Treehouse?
The owners are good people with good intentions who love Jamaica. They just made a mistake. The boat itself has great history and pedigree. That has sailed many oceans with many people safely since 1979. They both deserve another chance.
