My daughter and her boyfriend Jake don't believe in doing things halfway, so when they were looking for a boat to buy they didn't hold back. They came upon this 50' Bruce Farr design, and after some negotiations that arrived at a price and it is now theirs. They plan on living aboard in a Seattle marina and sailing/racing when they have the time. If you want to see the boats history check the Yachtworld listing. http://www.yachtworld.com/boats/1985/Farr-50-2743147/Seattle---Our-Docks!/WA/United-States
