[PUP] Searching for "Sea Raven" - please help

Hi Patrick -
 
What a great resource this list is, and what a  small community! Many thanks 
for writing and sharing this information. We  will check out the Friday Harbor 
lead.  
 
BTW, Sea Raven's PO posted his log of their 10  years of cruising; the early 
portion is pretty basic, but it gets better  and makes a good read for those 
who may be cruising or planning to in these  areas (Alaska to the SW 
Caribbean). On one of those pages is a great pic of Sea  Raven up on a rock or a bar. 
Here's the link to the home page:  http://tinyurl.com/2lkn2a

> I was aboard SEA RAVEN back around 1995 when  the boat was 'for sale by 
owner'.
I don't recall the owners name, but I do  recall he purchased a bare hull and
finished out the topsides and interior  himself.  The saloon had an
unbelievable, articulating dining/coffee  table made of solid wood.  The boat
was located in Friday Harbor.   As I remember, the asking price was around
$250K.  She was a little  rough on the fit and finish but none the less, she
was a true, blue water  passagemaker.  Since the boat was furnished and fitted
out by a man, for  a man (you know, fishing poles in the head, etc.) my wife
took one look and  said "no way."

I do have some photographs of the exterior
and interior  before the days of digital cameras.  The photos are in storage
someplace  back in the States, who knows where.

If I were you, I would inquire
at  the Friday Harbor marina.  I believe she was homeported there for  several
years.
