UPDATE – PRICE DROP! We just bought a bigger boat, which means it’s time to find a new home for Byakhee, our well-loved MacGregor 21. To speed things along, I’m dropping the price from $6,000 to $5,000. If I don’t find a buyer in the next month or two, I’ll be pulling her from her side-tie in Squalicum Harbor and moving her to dry storage for the winter. At that point, I’ll relist her in the spring. So if you want to take advantage of her prime moorage location and get a deal on a fully-outfitted pocket cruiser that’s ready to sail the San Juans right now, this is your moment. Message me soon if you’re interested! ————————— Looking for an affordable, capable pocket cruiser to explore the San Juans? This 1982 MacGregor 21 is the real deal—swing keel, trailerable, easy to sail solo, and packed with thoughtful upgrades. She's currently moored at Squalicum Harbor, with a sidetie slip that may be transferable. I'm a professional boat technician, and since buying Byakhee in 2020 I've put hundreds of hours into making her clean, reliable, and adventure-ready. From electrical and rigging to the hull, trailer, and keel, nearly every major system has been installed new, inspected, repaired, or rebuilt. She’s not a museum piece—there are still some cosmetic quirks—but she’s solid, well-balanced, and draws compliments every time I take her out. This is the least boat you need to go anywhere in the islands. Just pull an SUP and the San Juans are yours. ------------------------------ Specs: LOA: 21’ Beam: 6’10” Draft: 1’ (keel up) / 5.5’ (down) Swing keel (rebuilt: winch, cable, guide bar, mounting plate) Masthead sloop rig – reefable main + 100% jib Displacement: 1,175 lbs Ballast: 400 lbs Fiberglass hull and deck 1982 model year Clean title Trailer included (fully rebuilt this spring) Power: Suzuki DF9.9 Four-Stroke Long Shaft High-thrust prop Gear shift on tiller Custom reinforced motor mount w/ spring assist Reliable, well maintained, easy to operate from cockpit Rigging & Sails: All lines led aft to cockpit (Spinlock clutches + Lewmar self-tailing winches) Lazy jacks, mast gate, single-line reefing Mainsheet and jibsheet travelers Classic Schattauer mainsail (reef point added, still holds shape well) 100% jib (2022, Bellingham Sails) with cockpit furling system LED anchor + steaming lights, windex, rigid spreader supports Quick-disconnect mast wiring plug Electrical & Instruments: House + engine battery system BlueSea fuse block, DC breaker, AC charger LED nav/cabin/cockpit lights USB + 12V ports, voltage meter HawkEye depth sounder Cockpit wireless phone mount for Navionics Push-button power & terminal strip for expansion Hull & Structure: Portside hull damage professionally repaired (2020) Windows replaced with polycarbonate & M3 4000 UV sealant Entire hull sanded and repainted in 2025: Pettit topside + antifouling paints Vinyl bootstripe, gold pinstripe, vinyl name/registration Keel removed, sealed, rust-treated, and repainted New keel winch & aluminum mounting plate All hull hardware rebedded Deck Notes: Deck is solid and dry with no known soft spots or rot.
