Alianco - 36' Alan Pape Ebbtide
Now sold
Now sold
Alianco is a solidly built, hard chine, steel liveaboard and a blue water cruiser. With full head height throughout, we have lived on her full time on and off for five years both in the canals and the Med.
She is currently on the hard in a boatyard in Castelsarrasin on the Canal Lateral a la Garonne. Castelsarrasin is less than an hour from Toulouse by train. Both the Med and the Atlantic are accessible via the canals.
Alianco would suit those who want to cruise the oceans, but also those who want an affordable, floating home in the canals while dreaming of a life of sailing. There are liveaboard marinas along the canals where, for a fraction of the cost of a house or flat you could live in a small village like Moisac or Castelsarrasin or in a major city like Toulouse.
UPDATE 22/10/2020
Since deciding to put Alianco up for sale I have discovered that the masts and battens are no longer seaworthy or repairable. I am now looking at four options:
Replace the masts in solid Douglas Fir as the originals,
Build hollow masts in Douglas Fir,
Have steel masts made,
Or sell her as a project.
If I sell her as a project the price would be £20,000. If I sell her with new masts and bamboo battens the price would be £25,000. I would be open to sensible offers.
UPDATE 17/01/2023
Due to certain circumstances I have decided to drop the project price to £18000 or near offer. The UK registration will run out in April so I will register her in Poland which is valid world wide and will never need to be renewed.
