Specification
I've
decided to sell Ishtar (formerly Curt Radford's
Cabin Fever). This is a stunning 38 that is most
likely one of the nicest, original 38's anywhere.
See many pictures of Ishtar in the "models" section
of the Commander Club site under "Joe
Attura - Ishtar". Shed kept in Wisconsin from
1967 until 2005.
I bought her from Curt, then pulled the 1997 400
hour fuel injected Merc 7.4's to rebuild the engine
room: new exhaust system and mufflers with custom
glass tube 5" outlets, new mahogany and aluminum
engine stringers, shaft logs, dripless shaft seals,
upgraded 1.5" ss shafts, DQX Nibral Michigan wheels,
all new engine room wiring, batteries, switches,
etc. And, a new 5kw Westerbeke generator (custom
white paint).
New
hydraulic steering, head, etc. She has the
desireable mahogany interior. All work done by one
of Maine's top yards. All chrome is excellent,
including both helms. Non pitted aluminum, stanchion
bases, etc. Incredible original gelcoat.
Shes
quick: 22 knot cruise at 3200 rpm, 30+ knots at 4250
WOT, and the fuel injected 7.4's are fuel efficient.
Ishtar runs like a new boat. See also Classic Yacht
magazine (the bridge shot on the cover is Ishtar.
Some, but not all, of the other pictures are Ishtar).
I've invested $140,000 into this beautiful boat. If
you want one of the best at a fraction of the cost
of restoring a 38, here she is. Call
with any questions.
