    We sailed 'Footloose' down the W Coast of Sweden to Copenhagen in June/July '24 and then on through the Danish Archipelago - the weather was often pretty crappy (summer? What summer!) but our boat looked after us as well as ever. We are now hauled out for another year in a big shed on Fehmarn in Germany - great yard! Next up: the Kiel Kanal, Frisian Islands and a bit of gentle exploration in the Netherlands in 2025. We can recommend the Sunbird 32 as a great cruising design ....but not this one now!

    Note from Webmaster:  Hej. I took the liberty of converting the text document you attached from Libreoffice .odt to a regular PDF document.  I use Libreoffice but some people may not know what an .odt file is or be able to open it.  PDF is much more common.  I also took the liberty of adding the contact details in your online post to the PDF so potential buyers would have the contact info handy.  Finally, I had to delete from your post the .odt attachment in order to add the .pdf document because there is a maximum of 20 attachments.  However I attach the original .odt version to this reply.  Cheers.

    The text document says:  "Engine power is the standard 20HP Bukh – a very reliable motor always properly serviced and winterized. Stern gland is an excellent Shaftseal (graphite) for sailing with dry bilges!"

    What year was this engine installed? Cheers.
