A dedicated team of Canadian Lifeboat Institution (CLI) volunteers has meticulously refurbished a 1980 Windward 30 sailboat, now offered for sale at $15,000 (or best offer), a significant reduction from its original listing of $25,000.

This 9.3m monohull, designed by Richard D. Carlson and built by Windward Marine of Richmond, B.C., is a stable and capable coastal cruiser, with a proven racing pedigree. Its sister ship, “Pitoraq,” a 1979 Windward 30, achieved overall victory in the 2017 Vancouver Island Racing Series, demonstrating the design’s potential. Approximately 15 units of this model have been built since 1970.

Viewings are available in Ladner. A copy of the current survey, from November 2023, is available for a $25 donation to CLI.

All proceeds from the sale will directly support the Canadian Lifeboat Institution a nationally registered charitable organization dedicated to marine search and rescue. Your purchase will contribute to saving lives and property at sea.
