SEMPER PARATUS | 1988 Bayfield 32C Tall Rig Cutter

Brockville, ON, CA

About

You will be hard-pressed to find a better-looking and better-cared-for Bayfield 32C on the market. Her condition definitely belies her age and her last two owners have lavished her with love and attention.

The Bayfield 32 has an impressive track record. Bob Lush sailed an early boat in the 1976 OSTAR, the single-handed transatlantic race. Lush noted that the eastbound, off-the-wind passage to England was a delight, with the boat making 1,000 miles a week and handling well. Plenty of other 32's have completed ocean passages, and the boat is a good choice for a Caribbean or Bahamas sabbatical.

SEMPER PARATUS is believed to have been the second last 32 that was ever built. Her current owners have enjoyed her for the last 18 years. During their custodianship, it is truly amazing the care, improvements and upgrades that they have bestowed upon her. In truth, when you come aboard her, her overall quality feels more like an up-scale Gozzard than a Bayfield.

Some of her notable upgrades are:

New Yanmar 3YM30 diesel in 2007
4 Lewmar 30BBST winches
Manual Anchor Windlass
Stainless Steel Bruce and CQR Anchors
Custom teak cockpit floor grating
Custom remodeled galley area
Cruising spinnaker
Espar diesel heater
Solar panel
Atkins and Hoyle Davits
and much, much more

Add all of these upgrades to her incredible interior and exterior condition and you have a Bayfield 32C that is absolutely amazing.

Testimonials

George Ayers was terrific to work with over the past few months as I evaluated, negotiated and purchased a CS 30 that Harris & Ellis Yachts had listed in Sarnia. He was patient, thorough and totally professional. I have owned nine sailboats in my 50+ years as a sailor. My experience with George and Harris & Ellis Yachts has been my best boat buying experience to date.

George did an amazing job of selling our CS 30 sailboat. A caring and compassionate person, he went above and beyond our expectations and never stopped working on our behalf to get the job done. We are forever grateful for his dedication to his work. Please let him know how much we think of him!

I am writing to express my deepest gratitude for the outstanding service provided by Greg. Last October, my husband suddenly passed away due to a heart attack, leaving behind two boats. Greg was instrumental in helping me sell the first boat quickly and at a very good price. As for the second boat, due to my husband's declining health in his final year, the boat had been sitting idle at the dock near our home for over a year. Greg demonstrated the utmost professionalism in cleaning, maintaining, and preparing the boat for sale. He put in a tremendous amount of work, understanding the niche market for this boat, and always kept me informed of his progress without burdening me with the stress of the process. Last week, Greg successfully sold the second boat, and I am very satisfied with the price achieved. His professionalism and confidence in his work gave me a much-needed sense of security during such a difficult time.

Thank you for all your work in facilitating the sale of our dad's boat. Jake and I really appreciate all the hard work you put into it with the many visits, paperwork, etc. A special mention has to go out to Grant for teaching me how to fold the sails!

As first-time boat buyers and as foreigners wanting to buy a cruising catamaran in the US, we knew we needed a reliable broker that had our best interests in mind. John Heintzman was just that, and more! He was extremely committed to understanding what we were looking for, gave great advice, and guided us through the purchase process with great patience and knowledge. All in all, we felt very well taken care of.

—

I feel compelled to reach out about the absolutely wonderful experience that I have had with Grant and Patricia Bowlby. I completed the purchase of a boat yesterday and I couldn’t be happier. They were so helpful, kind, and patient. This was my first experience with a broker, and I think I’ve found the best.

I can’t thank Ewan Campbell enough for the super job he did in selling G, making up for my lack of experience in this realm and patiently searching for just the right buyer and a win-win for seller and buyer alike.

It was a wonderful experience selling A with Jeff Cole’s expert assistance. Thank you for simplifying a complicated process. Your patience and kindness are especially appreciated.
