Sea Dream, our Bavaria 32 a 2004 version purchased early 2020 in fine condition. Had spent all its life in Haslar marina and clearly had been well looked after. Its the first boat i have owned that had dust in the bilges! Now safe and enjoying life in Falmouth.
Presently she is in dry storage at Mylor harbour with mast off, small refit consisting of adding a Cayman 88 anchor winch, new rigging and relocating some of the navigational instruments. The main event was the replacement of the 1.5 inch sewage seacock, the survey had picked up the possibility of change, so after dining heavily on You tube videos i replaced the manufacturers seacock with a complete bronze assembly. The job was very easy, simply grinding off the outboard flange, and twisting off the internal valve. as i made my first twist the valve tail crumbled! as per image.
