Brokerage Comments

Having purchased Sally Rose in 2001, her current owners sailed from Baltimore to her new home in Florida enjoying a 6 month cruise. Jim and Bobbie ended up in Burnt Store Marina  before buying their home in Punta Gorda where she currently lies. They are the third owners and Jim with his expertise in boat building and woodcraft has upgraded and maintained Sally Rose to a very high standard.

Sally Rose was hit by lightening in 2018 which is why you will note ALL of the electronics were upgraded at that time.
