Description
“Concrete Idea” has been well maintained by the current owner, with a recently repainted deck, upgraded flooring on the soles of the master and guest cabin, newer AC units in the salon and master Stateroom, and all new (2024) house batteries. Built for long range ocean cruising as well as coastal, her hull and decks are solid fiberglass. Her first owners were from Virginia, and after they sold her the second owners kept her on the Great Lakes for 30 years. During that time, she only spent 3 to 4 months a year cruising, all in freshwater, and was stored safely for the winter months in climate controlled indoor storage. She was purchased by the current owners in 2013 and has spent the years cruising the East Coast and the Bahamas. She is ready to take off today,and won’t last long!

Carolyn grew up living aboard her family’s 47’ GulfStar Sailmaster, cruising up and down the East Coast and through the Bahamas for nearly twenty years. Shew crewed on various boats, detailed boats, and worked at a prominent marina in St. Augustine, FL, while working her way through college. She worked her way up to management at the marina and was a loyal employee for over 15 years. Talking to the boaters of all types as they transited the ICW and stopped at the marina, was one of the highlights of her job, but they got to take off and head to places more tropical while she was stuck in St. Augustine.
Carolyn is a fine arts graduate from Flagler College, an artist, yogi, and an avid surfer and guitar player. She travels the world to various surfing destinations whenever she can and enjoys traveling solo.
After the marina, Carolyn worked for a local recruiting firm and then Solar Stik as an administrative assistant. She has also taught yoga at various venues around St. Augustine. She brings her organizational and logistical skills with her to Sunshine Cruising Yachts, and is very excited to be working on the water again. She lives with her husband and two boys as well as various animals (mainly cats and guinea pigs) in St. Augustine.
Be careful! Her enthusiasm is contagious!
, `testimonial` ="Carolyn is the boat broker to work with!
My wife and I used her to sell our 38ft sailboat and she was awesome to work with. We had the boat in Georgia while we lived in Idaho and she was located in Florida and she went out of her way to help when things needed to get done on the boat.
I would recommend her to absolutely anyone that is looking to sell or buy a boat. An absolute pleasure to work with
