Cascade
42 Sloop
"BORN FREE"
$79,500
 This Cascade 42 sloop rigged
ocean-going cruiser is a documented vessel named "Born Free".
Its previous owner, sailed "Born Free" to the South
Seas, as far as Antofagasta, Chile, back north through the Panama
and the islands of the Carribean, as far North in the Atlantic
as the St. Lawrence River and into the Great Lakes, and back
to the Panama Canal and Hawaii.
Born Free's present
owner replaced the mast and rigging, refiberglassed the top of
the boat, installed 15 new portholes, put a new Volvo Penta diesel
engine, new, state-of-the-art dripless packing box, new voltage
regulator and charger, new fuel tank and had it rewired. Additionally,
the old interior was removed and replaced it with a new interior
and paneling. The hull is in excellent shape and is typical of
the fine construction of Cascade Yachts. "Born Free"
is presently moored at the Ala Wai Yacht in Honolulu, Hawaii.
The boat is in very good condition,
and was recently drydocked and painted with four coats of the
best bottom paint.
This boat could sail
anywhere. It is good looking and safe. A true blue water cruiser
which can be sailed single handed easily. If you have any questions

About Cascade
Boats
(Excerpts from an
Internet article)
 Cascades
have been finished by hundreds of owners, each in a different
way, yet nothing disastrous has ever happened. In fact the problem,
if there is one, is that owner-builders tend to overbuild everything.
But then the hulls are also overbuilt as well, laminated with
8 layers of 24 oz. woven roving below the waterline on the 29
and 12 layers on the 42. (The expression "bulletproof"
is often bandied around, but 45 slugs really do bounce off these
hulls, which have survived groundings and collisions that would
have sunk lighter boats.)
Whether
you wish to sail the Pacific, or simply have a beautiful yacht
to come to and stay in Hawaii , at one of the most beautiful
vacation resorts in the world (without having to pay $300 or
more per day for a hotel) BORN FREE is the boat and home for
you - waiting.
