thanks for the correction on the designer...MacLear and Harris not S&S...I should have caught that especially as i was briefly the yacht maintenance hand on a 72' M&H called Jubillee back in my Navy days..(just after they invented water) :-) thank you Drew
Drew Carleton 3 days ago I grew up sailing a Seabreeze. It's been in our family for 50 years. I think you made a mistake with the designer. It's not S&S, it's Maclear and Harris.
Captain Q is amazing. The man’s knowledge of boats, history, manufacturing, usability, etc. is over the top. I could listen to him for hours. Oh... come to think of it..., I do listen to him for hours. 😎 Captain Mark...
I also watch all his videos. I am learning so much. When the time comes for me to purchase my sailing home, I am going to contact the 2 handsome sailors ❤
We were smitten with the beauty of the Seabreeze the 1st time we saw one, now 24 years ago. It is an absolute joy to sail! As a matter of fact, out yawl Stardust, hull 82 of the series, makes a cameo as a still in your video. For the critics out there making negative comments, I would say you should get off the couch and go sailing. Most sailors who sail lots of different boats would agree that a good all around boat is a joy. The Seabreeze is a fantastic small 35’ cruiser that can take you anywhere your heart and soul want to go.
Finally a true expert on boats. The 'other channel,' is completely clueless as they attempt to show boats for sale. Thanks Capt Q of the boat continuum, Picard would be proud.
The reason your channel is my favorite about boats for sale is you present boats you know can be afforded by regular people. I have yet to see you present a boat that you haven’t taught us so much about. Keep making videos and I’ll keep watching!
One of my all time favorite boats. You hit the nail on the head when you said that she would generate interest and comments wherever she goes. IMHO, what a sailboat "should" look like. Glad the great algorithm gods suggested your channel!
You need to rehab one of your finds. Think this old house, but for boats. Captain Q is great on camera and I appreciate the good production values. I hope this takes off. Keep up the good work.
I owned a 43' 1938 P. Rhodes which I sailed down past the Turks, and Leeward Islands, Bequia, and beyond. I replaced the Atomic 4 gas with a Volvo MD3 diesel in Nassau. I Bought the diesel for $50 but it was completely in parts down to the rings and crankshaft all in baskets. Had a little help from Crazy Johnny Brown from Browns Boatyard. You are correct everyone asked about this old boat rather then speak to owners of $500,000 yachts. I gave RANDOM away and she sailed off somewhere to places unknown.
I really enjoy this channel. Not sure what your background is, but obviously you know sail boats, and educated and entertaining. Thank you for making my COVID-19 evening a little nicer. Honestly, thank you.
Your so welcome I hope You are just quarantining and not actually suffering from the Covid but if the latter is the case I wish you good health and speedy recovery and we will continue to try and entertain and educate as best we can Thank you and happy New Year’s to you
I have noticed boat prices have been dropping like lead...I have only been up on boats for the last 10 15 years but inhave never seen the deals I have been seeing and this boat is proof NOW IS THE TIME TO BUY GO SMALL GO NOW!!!👍😊 maybe u guys could look for more pocket cruisers 😊👍
That is a beautiful sailing boat but what made it even more attractive is the knowledge and experience you taught me about her. Great channel Captain Q.
Allied did a very wholesome build i recently made some great passage on one of their Seawind 32 ketches between Nova Scotia and downeast Maine...aren't boats just the best thing
Enjoyed your video captain Q, Just bought a Seabreeze and have been working on her, Even after 50+ years she is still solid. People have stopped by and said what a beautiful boat. You were right. Hopefully will get to splash her next spring.
Fantastic and congratulations!! We must know: is she a sloop or yawl rig? Diesel or gas? What color? Did you catch our episode before buying her? Did you get an equally good bargain? Where are you going to take her? If you can't tell by all the questions we were pretty smitten with the Seabreeze...
She’s a sloop rig with a Westerbeke diesel. The topside is white with red stripes and a blue bottom. Yes, I did get a good deal through an estate sale, but it took a year of looking. With big dreams of sailing the world, but Near term, just getting her in the water. Lol d
I’ve had a ’72 Pearson 30 with an Atomic 4 gas engine for 20 years ; it’s been very reliable and easy to work on, and parts and support are still to be had. I would tell a prospective buyer of a boat with one not to be put off. To be sure: the value of a mid sized older sailboat is to some large degree determined by the state of engine, and you should always have a mechanic look at the engine as your surveyor is looking at the boat -
This is both helpful and very wise.... we think getting a proper survey is imperative for anyone serious about buying a boat.... same goes for having a mechanic evaluate the engine. Thanks for sharing (and congrats on owning a beauty!) !!
“On a scale of 1 to 10 this is a…18!” I love the scale part of these videos because you know it’s going to be off the chart with enthusiasm and excitement.
Good afternoon Captain, love your program. I know it adds another element but current sail condition would be a great mention as the cost of replacement is a major cost. Keep up the good work. Cheers
Excellent feedback - thank you. We sometimes have a hard time getting our hands on the sails if they are stored for the winter.... we heard from the owner that they were in quite good condition. We will work on including some basic pricing in some upcoming episodes. Cheers!!
Very professional, great video and editing for such a small subscriber channel. Enjoy your love of the boats and knowledge. I think that boat might need rigging, nav etc, there is a 5 figure problem. All the old boats will need solar, batteries, inverters, nav gear, autopilot service, but thats doable... Can you go over a few inspection techniques to check capillary probs, water ingress, . Are you going to look at cats? I want a cat in a year or two. Probably not your thing i guess... I should get you to find me a boat...
Made in Catskills NY right off the Hudson River ... I did visit well they were still building boats 1979 I think ... Seabreeze I think they made 135 of them thick fiberglass older boats had bronze center boards later had aluminum.... and bigger cockpits... Super cool boats thanks for the look ! Love a classic
She is really a pretty boat and the owner has maintained it well truly a blast from the past with a beauty that will evoke comments every time you pull into a harbor. Comfy as heck for a couple and roomy enough for two more guests or children. Mr ghost man you are spot on Have a happy new year
Love your videos Captain Q! Hopefully you make many more as I learn from every one of them. Your humour with Randy always brings a smile. As a videographer myself you two are doing a great job. Interesting videos and a pleasure to watch.
Gorgeous boat. Funny about the Atomic 4 discussion; I have one on my 1975 C&C27, and it's terrific. Simple and easy to maintain, parts & service easy to get. Running the blower before starting is no big deal. And my insurance company has never said a word about it. So if it's mechanically sound, I don't see any reason to reflexively (expensively) swap in an A4 for a new diesel.
Great review and value. Thanks for doing these. I kept a boat at Green Point for 10 years and remember how tricky it was getting in there. I loved the do it yourself approach and its proximity to the Ipswich Bay YC.
That sailboat is beautiful. You are 100% correct on the door check alignment for a shifted hull/boat. I also see the owner upgraded the alternator as well.
What a beauty classic design sailboat ! I am looking to buy next year 2021 on the east coast . Its marvelous and great filming . Good explanation in details, many thanks ⛵ Warm greetings from beautiful island 🏝 of Kauai. Happy holidays !
Thanks so much!! What a lovely place to be situated - we have a little envy as we start to deal with shrink-wrapped boats and snowfall here in New England. Cheers!
I like everything build in 66...the year I was born.i saw that 64 Pearson you showed and the 385.i plan on buying a nice sailboat to do some crusing.keep up the good work Captain and Randy,Love the videos.loved it when I saw you make it down to Ct .i remember when "Stars and Stripes" came in to have work done her. I ended up taking scuba diving up because of her being parked across the street in the diving shop parking lot.
She was quite a sight - and seeing double too. Although we learned those were likely trial horses and not the original. You are wise to be looking at that age range… many enduring boats built in that era -including the PB
Thankyou for all the the woderful information an history of a lovely boat, wish l were able to be in ipswich and buy her, in stead of Australia and broke. Loved the program again thankyou.
Wow Captain Q! We love your spirit, and your knowledge on boats. You inspire us to go out there to finally take that step to buy a yacht and discover the world on the water. We do not know much about sailing. We get a lot of comments from our viewers that we do not know what we are getting ourselves into etc, and that is true.. But at the same time we are new to all of this, so we do not really know if we will succeed in going on with our story. Right now we are looking for at a Hunter 42 Passage. If the boat is in a good state, could you consider this boat being a blue water boat? Love Dirk & Maraya
Thanks for your work to bring this beauty to our attention, and for explaining the science behind racing! Please keep sharing your expertise! Had to subscribe.
You seem to find the best boat buys around Capt, I will be engaging your services when I’m ready to make my move back on to the water, a beautiful classic very well presented, cheers! 💥👍🏻
I’m pretty current with your more recent videos,,,(2022) but starting to catch some of your earlier works now This one easily shows that Ran-day has been a great enhancement (compliment) to the sage delivery of the Captain Your teamwork WORKS! Appreciate all your efforts
Haven't sailed since the early 90s. It was a Henry Scheel, Fishers Island 44 Pilot House, 1962. #7 of fifteen that were constructed, by American Marine in Hong Kong. It had a silver plate on the inside that said, Custom Crafted for Mrs. And Mr. Christopher's, whomever they were. "China Doll" was the name! This is a great show, awesome job!
Our episode 11 features a Scheel design if you haven't checked it out.... some very clever features. We are big fans of his designs. If you look in the comments of that video, you'll see a friend of his gave some insight as to how he arrived at a few of the design aspects - which we find really neat!! Cheers!
These are really Good Boats. With an interior that you can make into exactly what you want it to be. The Atomic bomb is nowhere near as bad as people think. Very reliable, just run the blower before you start it. Really, only a few of Capt Q's reviews are going to be as much fun to sail as this one.
Agree about the Atomic.... it's in great (apparent) shape and if you run the blower, they are fine. Everything else on her seemed to be what you would expect from an ex-Navy man....
@@YachtHunters If it weren't, Atomic 4 (NICE) rebuilds could be swapped out easily, so you don't miss out on any sailing. If your Atomic 4 head gasket blows, don't waste time trying to fix it. Trade it for one that's been flattened. It's not possible to tighten the head bolts enough in these cases, imho. Sorry to keep digressing, Thanks, Cap.
Perelandra is the name of a book (Science Fiction) by CS Lewis. Great book, which does nothing to dissuade me from running down to Ipswitch to buy this boat. (a lack of money will do that....) Nice boat. Very much the kind of boat I'd like to get.
@@YachtHunters well, my corp lunches have already been downgraded to McDonalds, don't have NetFlix, nor a garage to sell. But, I've got some teenagers (lightly used) that I'm willing to negotiate on... :-) The purchasing of one of these (like the Cal 40 you just reviewed! WOWSERS!) doesn't scare me as much as the upkeep costs. Captain, I'm guessing you're in Southern Maine. Can I buy you a coffee sometime, and pick your brain? Thanks for these videos. Even in these non sailing days, you're making me drool all over my keyboard! :-)
The centerboard will help her track upwind ( uncomfortable and avoidable but you'll be thankful in those situation whereupwind is your only option) and great to get you into safe anchorage. Easy to single hand, great for a couple, good boat running in a storm. Down side, not a roomy interior, expensive to dock, haul out. The v berth is used to store sails when underway, no good too sleep in. Ideal boat, miss the sixties.
@@YachtHuntersv birth no good for anything, but temporary head sail storage underway., best use I ever saw of that area, was the removal of the bulk heads, and a wrap around sofa. I think it was a...cant recall...it had loads of wicker cabinets. That's a real nice looking boat, I always wondered how those overhanging poop afts performed in a following sea.
Really like the combination of a full shallow keel and big centerboard. It will track beautifully, get into some pretty shallow places and I would think do quite well going to weather with that centerboard down.
Thank you for the video . Everything you said about the classics is true . I own a phillip Rhodes bounty 2 . If you find one of those they are well worth restoring . Solid boats built without a Deck.Core and they sail like a freight train 🚆
Fashion always attracts imitation like all the cars today you cant tell them apart and back then as sail deign changed others gloomed on and hence striking similarities in any given period though changes weren't quite so annualized back then as they are today
Hey!! I own a Allied Luders 33 she is gorgeous to sail the Allied yachts by bill luders and ted brewer were beautiful designs for their time. She is exactly same setup and same interior as my luders 33. I would think she is also designed by Bill Luders and Ted Brewer. Im currently doing a full refit on her she lives in Australia.
Lovely!!! I just happened to "stumble" upon your videos and they are so satisfying to watch...such a pleasure to listen Captain Q speak...so knowledgeable...obviously subscribe
I owned and refurbished a similar sister design and same vintage. An Alberg 35. Lovely vessel. Lived aboard and cruised for 8 years. Lost her in hurricane Andrew, a category FIVE storm. Tough boat.
I hope that was all you lost...a sunken or crashed boat is like a sick dog ...both have given us joy and love and to be taken out beyond their or our control is devastating
I love your videos, I looked at one of these before ultimately going with an Alberg 37, would love to see you guys do a video on the A37 if you should stumble upon one.
I bet it's sold.... But that's what I'm looking for... I really love the care he's taken I need a starter boat for family of 3... To live on... I'm at the end of my life but my 15 year old autistic son who is obsessed with the ocean. Geeze perfect!!!
thanks for the correction on the designer...MacLear and Harris not S&S...I should have caught that especially as i was briefly the yacht maintenance hand on a 72' M&H called Jubillee back in my Navy days..(just after they invented water) :-)
thank you Drew

There is no shortage of videos on sailboats but few people are as knowledgeable as Captain Q. The man knows his stuff.
Captain Q is amazing. The man’s knowledge of boats, history, manufacturing, usability, etc. is over the top. I could listen to him for hours. Oh... come to think of it..., I do listen to him for hours.

I’m a pilot and phrase “I’m not sure if the extra knot is worth the extra $400,000” is the most relatable thing I’ve ever heard a yachtsman say.
Haha. Is that good. ... I hope ? :-)
One of my all time favorite boats. You hit the nail on the head when you said that she would generate interest and comments wherever she goes. IMHO, what a sailboat "should" look like. Glad the great algorithm gods suggested your channel!

Travel is hard now and house loan rates are cheap.
Wow, what a gorgeous boat. The condition is amazing, he must LOVE that boat to have it nearly flawless almost 60 years later, very impressive.
We agree!
Beautifully done. I love listening to Captain Q. He's a gem. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Outstanding channel.
Thank you kindly!
That is a beautiful sailing boat but what made it even more attractive is the knowledge and experience you taught me about her. Great channel Captain Q.
Thanks very much!
Captain Q, you do a great job. Love your taste in the classic boats, & your technical analysis is wonderful.
Thank you kindly!
I had a chance to sail on a 39' Allied Mistress CC Ketch bank in 1975 for 2 weeks sailing in the Bahamas. Loved that boat.

Well thanks so much , I hope you subscribed and hit the reminder bell ...but regardless welcome aboard
I'm loving this channel. Thanks for the great content!
Thanks so much for the terrific channel. This was my first video and I loved it. Happy sailing
Glad you enjoyed it!
So people buy these sight unseen with no survey. I do enjoy your channel and knowledge 😉
This was a TH-cam suggestion and what a wonderful surprise. Great channel. ❤️🇨🇦
Welcome aboard !
What a description and what a boat, thanks 4 your insight into this Vessell. Regards Kad
She really has beautiful lines... you should see them in the water!! Thanks!
That sailboat is beautiful. You are 100% correct on the door check alignment for a shifted hull/boat. I also see the owner upgraded the alternator as well.
I guess we know who here has eagle eyes! 😀
A very pretty little boat but I was questioning the S&S design so thanks for the correction. I do like your honest presentation.
No worries! Macclear and Harris my mistake
I raced on a Sparks & Stephens 44 for many years on Long Island Sound....
Fantastic boat....
S&S really knew how to draw a great boat, right? We have another S&S coming up that's slightly newer... and great lines as always.
What a beauty classic design sailboat !
I am looking to buy next year 2021 on the east coast . Its marvelous and great filming . Good explanation in details, many thanks ⛵

Awesome, thank you! but without Ran Day there is no Captain Q (more than an enhancement) but thanks for your thoughtfulness
Fun watching your reviews of the older boats. Thanks.
Thanks Captain!

Come on ahead but
Call first
Wear a mask and gloves
social distance
Happy New Year
I WANNA GIVE THIS MAN A HUG
My Dad owned a sloop version of this boat in NJ during the late 1970's. Loved that boat.

I like those keels if I’m buying a used boat don’t want to worry about keel falling off.
i really don't think you will have to worry about that but we cant stop you worrying thanks for watching
I love this boat. So pretty. Thank you, I truly enjoy your channel!
Our pleasure! she really is
@@YachtHunters I would like to buy a sailboat but have no experience do like you show
Perelandra is the name of a book (Science Fiction) by CS Lewis. Great book, which does nothing to dissuade me from running down to Ipswitch to buy this boat. (a lack of money will do that....) Nice boat. Very much the kind of boat I'd like to get.
cut out hose corporate lunches , stop your netflix account , have a garage sale you could own her really?
@@YachtHunters well, my corp lunches have already been downgraded to McDonalds, don't have NetFlix, nor a garage to sell. But, I've got some teenagers (lightly used) that I'm willing to negotiate on... :-) The purchasing of one of these (like the Cal 40 you just reviewed! WOWSERS!) doesn't scare me as much as the upkeep costs. Captain, I'm guessing you're in Southern Maine. Can I buy you a coffee sometime, and pick your brain? Thanks for these videos. Even in these non sailing days, you're making me drool all over my keyboard! :-)
The centerboard will help her track upwind ( uncomfortable and avoidable but you'll be thankful in those situation whereupwind is your only option) and great to get you into safe anchorage.
Easy to single hand, great for a couple, good boat running in a storm.
Down side, not a roomy interior, expensive to dock, haul out.
The v berth is used to store sails when underway, no good too sleep in.
Ideal boat, miss the sixties.
dont forget she had cockpit lockers great for stowing well folded sails and opening up the fwd cabin for living space
@@YachtHuntersv birth no good for anything, but temporary head sail storage underway., best use I ever saw of that area, was the removal of the bulk heads, and a wrap around sofa.
I think it was a...cant recall...it had loads of wicker cabinets.
That's a real nice looking boat, I always wondered how those overhanging poop afts performed in a following sea.
@@michaelbrownlee9497 we all know what v-berths are for. You're not enlightening anyone, sorry.
@@audible67 im a nice person, i like people and am easy to get along with.
Thanks for your reply.
Really like the combination of a full shallow keel and big centerboard.
It will track beautifully, get into some pretty shallow places and I would think do quite well going to weather with that centerboard down.
Such a fantastic boat ⛵ and awesome channel. Just found Capt Q. Appreciate you & your knowkedge subscribed emediatly.
Welcome aboard!
I love this boat. I will call the boatyard in the morning to see if it is still available.
Thanks Capt. Q
Gary D.
last we heard it was off to FL to a new owner who was going to cruise the shallows of the Carribean with it... but best of luck!
Beautiful boat. And love the Luders 16 in the intro.
Many thanks!
Thank you for the video . Everything you said about the classics is true . I own a phillip Rhodes bounty 2 . If you find one of those they are well worth restoring . Solid boats built without a Deck.Core and they sail like a freight train 🚆
Tough to beat a Rhodes design!
Oh wow it's strikingly similar to hinckley b40. Same draft and centerbord design and very similar lines. A real beauty.
but narrower and it is five feet shorter but whos measuring and the price is not similar at all :-)
Hello Again 2U2. My dream boat , the Vindo is gone. This is lovely....... When the time comes , I will ask your advice. Pete. 🇦🇺
My dad has a 35 ft Bristol seventies vintage that he fully restored that looks very similar to this boat.
Fashion always attracts imitation like all the cars today you cant tell them apart and back then as sail deign changed others gloomed on and hence striking similarities in any given period though changes weren't quite so annualized back then as they are today
Beautiful lines! Appears to be sold to so you're doing a great job Captain Q. ;)
Hey!! I own a Allied Luders 33 she is gorgeous to sail the Allied yachts by bill luders and ted brewer were beautiful designs for their time. She is exactly same setup and same interior as my luders 33. I would think she is also designed by Bill Luders and Ted Brewer. Im currently doing a full refit on her she lives in Australia.
I also have a Luders 33 (Hull 20,1966). We saved her from the junk yard over the summer. She's a beautiful boat and she sails like a dream!
@@masongregory6913 Hey Fantastic!! are you on instagram? I have lots of photos of my Luders and the work I am doing on her
Lovely!!! I just happened to "stumble" upon your videos and they are so satisfying to watch...such a pleasure to listen Captain Q speak...so knowledgeable...obviously subscribe
Thanks for the kind words!! Welcome aboard!
Happy New Year guys!!
Keep up the good work
Thanks and Happy new year!!
Very enjoyable video. Wish you great success with your channel - just subscribed!
Welcome aboard!!
Gregory Penta just subscribed too. Love watching these videos.
I owned and refurbished a similar sister design and same vintage. An Alberg 35. Lovely vessel. Lived aboard and cruised for 8 years. Lost her in hurricane Andrew, a category FIVE storm. Tough boat.
I hope that was all you lost...a sunken or crashed boat is like a sick dog ...both have given us joy and love and to be taken out beyond their or our control is devastating
Tough boat is right! I'm doing a refit on a Seabreeze Citation that's built like a brick sh*thouse. Hate that you lost your boat, Fred.
“In dunno if it’s worth the extra, uhhh…$400,000.” 😂
WELL SAID, Sir. $20k for the win.
For $20k it’s a lovely and affordable classic 😍
Really like this boat ,well presented also Captain.
Good boat, Great Sweater!
I was wondering if you can do an episode on the 37 ft tartan blackwatch sailboats. Love them
We have been chatting with an owner about a Tartan 37.... it's not scheduled yet but stay tuned!
It certainly has a presence of its own. Very nice boat 👍👍
I love your videos, I looked at one of these before ultimately going with an Alberg 37, would love to see you guys do a video on the A37 if you should stumble upon one.
Oh, how I wish I had a buddy like Capt Q.
Looks like a great little boat
it really is
I bet it's sold.... But that's what I'm looking for... I really love the care he's taken I need a starter boat for family of 3... To live on... I'm at the end of my life but my 15 year old autistic son who is obsessed with the ocean. Geeze perfect!!!
not sold yet...overlooked by many she is a beauty
Great series
Amazing Sailboat
Capt. Q, at 0:41 what is going on in the background with what looks like 2 booms on the same mast on the boat behind you!??
Nice old boat, she's as old as I am, and possibly in better shape
I dig your channel dude.
Glad to hear it! cool beans Dude !
Haha 🙃
What a gorgeous boat.
