Bob and Fran, closed on our Santego 3867 last Friday after owning sailboats for more than twenty years. Old age has gotten in the way. It's a 1989, repowered with Cat 3116s in 1993. Love the layout except for only one head. One unusual feature, it has a dishwasher. We had a washing machine on our cruising boat, but never a dishwasher, that was always my job. The interior and outside cushions look like a new boat. The last owner was using it as a AirBnB, hence the great looking interior and cockpit cushions. Mechanical and electric will keep me out of the bars for a long time to come. I expect I will be a frequent poster with lots of question.
Boat is located in League City, TX.
Thanks for reading,
Bob

bobwhorn, welcome aboard and congratulations on your new to you Santego. Post some photos. Since I also own an 89 Santego 3867, I’m really curious about the dishwasher and where it’s located. If the admiral hears about a Santego with a dishwasher, she will want one installed on ours too! ;-)
