COLE 26  

Price: AU $25,000

Spray is a beautiful 26ft Cole. Well looked after by current and previous owners. Current owners are looking to sell to buy a larger racing boat.

Spray was fully refurbished by a previous owner in 2003. This involved extensive works to the hull, a new mast and new rigging. The past owner provided receipts showing approximately $90k of work done.

In March 2023, the current owners replaced the diesel engine with a 6kW ePropulsion motor, powered by lithium batteries. The system works well, and can be charged from shore power. It is a lot more pleasant to operate than a diesel engine - it is powerful, silent and has no emissions (plus: no fuel costs, and no annual servicing). When under sail, the propellor becomes a turbine, and also recharges the battery. The battery and motor price was $13,400. Installation and other works were $13,500. The owners also commissioned a full repaint of the hull 6 months later.

Spray comes in full working condition ready for racing around the Swan or a weekend at Rottnest.
