1986 O'Day 31
The SILVER HEELS, a 1986 model, is a nicely-kept & equipped example of the O'DAY 31. This was a very successful design as produced from 1985 through 1988 with 150 being built. Fast & with a very effective interior layout, the O'DAY 31's "scoop" transom was also a big feature improvement over her competitors of that era.
With the O'DAY 31 being noted for "Performance Cruising" capabilities, the SILVER HEELS features a 2006 NORTH SAILS Main & Genoa, HOOD roller-furling, an Asymmetrical Spinnaker, MARTEC folding prop, full Navigation & Performance electronics & an Autopilot and a Dodger & Awning. The self-tailing 2) speed winches, adjustable genoa cars from the Cockpit & upgraded mainsheet traveler system are all desirable enhancements. The custom FAIRCLOUGH canvas winter cover is included as well. Her Owners have also been diligent in the overall maintenance of the yacht as a review of the Listing will reveal.
The SILVER HEELS is offered for brokerage sale this Spring as the Owners have moved up to a larger sailboat .. by the same Manufacturer too .. as their O'DAY 31 provided exemplary service to this Family for the past six years! This is a nice, ready-to-go package and, in this size & price range, "hard to beat". Viewings are certain encouraged if this is an appealing concept!

1986 O'Day 31,This isnt just a boat, shes the newest member of your family! Over the course of the last 5 years Ruff Life has taught her current owners how to be sailors. They love everything about how she sails so much that they are staying in the ODay family and moving up to a larger version to accommodate their growing family. Ruff Life hails from Ann Arbor, MI originally but her current owners sail her on the Potomac River and Chesapeake Bay. She enjoys winds from 10-15 knots and will give you a gentle heel for a relaxing sail. Looking for a bit more adventure, she has taken on 20-25 knots which allow you to hang off the side and get your toes in the water! Her current family loves her ability to sail briskly under only the 155% genoa while resting the mainsail and maintaining plenty of cruising speed. Her cabin is nicely arranged, very large, and welcoming. She is equipped with an abundance of storage. Throughout their time together, the current owners have maintained her and updated / upgraded many parts to include a new dodger, new life lines, new headstay and new jib reefing configuration, new LED lights throughout, new portlights, custom mattress topper for the v-berth, and several layers of new bottom paint. The auxiliary power has been meticulously maintained and updated with a new alternator, new water pump, new heat exchanger, new starter, rebuilt raw water pump, rebuilt injector pump, and rebuilt transmission. Nothing has been neglected or forgotten on this lady. This isnt just a boat sale to the current owners, this is an adoption of one of their favorite members of the family!
