Boat History Report

Description

This is a true Classic Beauty that has been maintained to the highest standards. Her varnished Mahogany gleams and the white painted ceiling boards on the interior hull sides give her a clean, bright appearance. Her white painted Lapstrake hull and deck will give many years of pleasure. Her owners use her in the summers on the brackish waters of the upper Chesapeake Bay and store her on her trailer inside a shed, covered in the winter. The Lymans were built in Ohio and primarily used on lakes, though there are quite a few that have made it to the Chesapeake. The present owner has had her approx. 11 years and they are now moving to a larger vessel.


Here are some highlights of this vessel:


  • Just this last year all the varnish was done and decks re-painted
  • Lovely sporty, striped fabric
  • Replaced engine with only 336 hours on her
  • Bow thruster
  • New steering cable
  • Bimini top
  • Dual Axle trailer

The water has always been a part of my life since learning to sail aboard a Sailfish while vacationing in Chatham, Massachusetts. At twelve, I graduated to Penguins and 420’s at the Tred Avon Yacht Club in Oxford, Maryland. My parents always belonged to the Corinthian Yacht Club in Philadelphia and I often accompanied them on cruises aboard a Hinckley Bermuda 40 that we cruised in the Chesapeake.

Understanding banking after working 12 years for Loyola Savings and Loan of Maryland, I helped navigate the purchase of a 32’ Pearson Vanguard for a friend and taught him to sail. Loving the idea of sharing my passion for boating, I joined Oxford Boatyard Yacht Sales (in what is now Safe Harbor Oxford Boatyard and Marina) in 1990 and worked as a broker and office manager for 25 years. 

In 1993, Oxford Boatyard Yacht Sales became a dealer for Sabre and Back Cove Motor Yachts and I acquired an understanding and respect for powerboats. I worked closely with the boatyard commissioning new vessels and working as a liaison between new owners and the marina. I have an intimate understanding of the boat buying process - how to guide new owners through surveys, sea trials, registration, and documentation. 

I love all boats and each one has its own quality. Though I would consider myself a traditionalist in boat design, I like what the new designs offer in comfort and ability. 

 

My husband (of 30 years) and I live in Easton, Maryland. My husband is the rigging supervisor at Safe Harbor Oxford Boatyard and our daughter, having graduated from Washington College in 2020, is now teaching English as well as coaching the sailing team at the Gunston School in Centreville, Md. She has recently come on board as the Summer Sailing Director with the Tred Avon Yacht Club.

 

I am starting my 7th year as a broker with Brewer Yacht Sales and in addition to my office at Safe Harbor Zahniser’s in Solomon’s, Maryland I now have an office at Safe Harbor Oxford. This enables me to cover the territory from the Eastern Shore to Solomon’s Island and everything in between. 

 

I look forward to speaking with you and sharing my passion for boats. Let me help you find the perfect yacht or support and guide you in the sale of your existing vessel!
