(PRICE REDUCED AGAIN!! & FREE SHIPPING up to 400 miles!!) About 2 1/2 years ago, I purchased the Sea Lord, a 1959, 46 foot Chris Craft Constellation. The Sea Lord was launched and used every year, along with being stored and cared for contiuously under the same covered slip at Brand's Marina, Port Clinton, OH, since new. I took ownership in November 2005. My family and I have so very much enjoyed cruising with her on Lake Erie for the past 2006 and 2007 seasons. She was lifted from Lake Erie by Brand's Marina's crew in August of 2007, loaded onto my semi boat trailer and moved to our family farmstead in southeastern North Dakota. Before the move the Sea Lord was shrink wrapped and sealed for the off season while on board the trailer, where she still remains in storage at our farm near Verona, ND. The Sea Lord's interior in completely original with beautiful mahogany doors, paneling and trim. Chris Craft furnishings along with other unique pieces will remain on board at the time of sale. The salon and galley headliner was recently replaced. Both heads are in proper working order. The teak forward and aft decks are sound and in good condition structurally, but need refinishing. The deck cover boards were replaced and finished in 2004. The hand rails were also refinished at that time. The lee clothes covering the hand rails and removable canvas bridge enclosure are custom made and mildew free. A small amount of dry rot does exist on the starboard and port sides next to the transom as well as in the middle of the bow; all above the water line. She is 100% in structure and floor plan and has never been remodeled in any way as to not compromise her originality and elegance. Twin 200 HP Hercules WB engines power the Sea Lord. They are in excellent condition and run smoothly. All four of her Zenith carburators were completely rebuilt in 2006. She has a 6.5kw Onan gen set for offshore power. Also included is an additional set of props which have a different blade count and pitch to them. The Sea Lord has two 150 gallon fuel tanks, one 100 gallon fresh water tank and a 30 gallon holding tank. My family and I have made the decision to sell the Sea Lord as we are committed to the purchase of another wooden vessel that is much older and larger and will accomodate our expanding family. This decision was also made to avoid the risk of being hurt by my wife of 35 years if I don't give up one of the boats as much as I would like to keep them both! Our plan was to cruise the Sea Lord on the Missippippi River hailing from Red Wing, Minnesota, launching and docking her at the Ole Miss Marina located there. We had hoped to enjoy the Mississippi, St.Croix, and Minnesota rivers for the upcoming season and longer, before further restoration would be necessary. Since the opportunity to purchase the other vessel presented itself, we then decided to sell the Sea Lord. I have reduced the selling price of the Sea Lord from $25,000 to $17,500, to $15,000 or will consider any reasonable offer, in hopes of a more immediate sale. At the time of sale, I will deliver her FREE of charge up to 400 miles in any direction from our farmstead in southeastern North Dakota. This would include the Minneapolis area which is 300 miles from my home. An additional charge of $5 per loaded mile will be added for any miles over 400. I will provide photos via mail, email, CD or DVD to serious parties only, if requested. Respectfully, Rocky Ballinger/ 11686 75th St. SE/ Verona, ND 58490-9212/ Phone: 7
