1989 O’Day 322 For Sale
$47,900 CAD or Reasonable Offer

Star of the YouTube Channel Carpe Diem Sailing, this is a great, very well-equipped, comfortable cruising boat. She has been lovingly looked after, maintained & upgraded by the owner for the past 25 years. Originally bought for use as a teaching platform, the boat proved her worth as a stiff and sea kindly boat in all weather and sea conditions over ten years of teaching. She retired from teaching in 2009 and has been lightly cruising ever since. This is a registered vessel.
Check out the YouTube Channel to see her in action at Carpe Diem Sailing Magazine.
Complimentary local sailing & docking instruction from Sail Canada Instructor and access to Master the Art of Docking video series may be provided with sale.
