2008 Beneteau Oceanis 37 "MALUHIA", Sausalito, CA 94965 (Clipper Yacht Harbor)

$11,000

Reduced from 0.85 in this re-audit after testing it against the corrected standard. This is NOT a seller-stated defect the way Mayari's is - nobody has said this rig needs replacing. What supports it is a calculation against a documented service interval rather than age alone: Rigworks records an industry service life of 10-12 years for stainless wire, this hull is eighteen years old and would be twenty at a March 2028 departure, and the listing's maintenance history is granular enough to name the vang lines and the outhaul track while saying nothing whatever about the rig. Conspicuous silence in a detailed record is weak positive evidence, not proof. The 20 percent covers an undocumented mid-life re-rig and the possibility a rigger passes the wire for the passage.

$500

Supported by a listing statement rather than by silence, which is why it survives the corrected standard: the maintenance record credits the vang lines and the outhaul track as replaced in 2022 and names nothing else, which is positive evidence that the halyards were not touched. Eighteen-year-old halyards on a 6,000-mile downwind passage where chafe rather than load is what ends line is a defensible renewal. The 25 percent is the chance more was done than listed.

$6,500

This is no longer inferred from ambiguous broker wording. The 2020 hull-specific survey states that the North 3DL performance sails were fitted in 2013; the current listing calls the North 3DL main merely serviced in 2023 while separately calling the headsail new in 2023. Unless an intervening mainsail invoice exists, the main will be fifteen years old at departure. Condition still controls, so a sailmaker inspection can retire the line, but an aging carbon laminate inside an in-mast furler is not a prudent default for a 6,000-mile downwind crossing.

$3,200

Reduced again after receipt of the February 2026 hull-specific invoice and current component photographs. The raw-water intake, valve, hose, clamps, Groco strainer and scoop were renewed for $2,273, and the installed Yanmar F4B-903 pump shows no visible active leak. The 2020 engine history was also positive. This does not replace a current compression/oil/load test or address injectors, valve clearances, mounts, alignment and remaining rubber, so an offshore service allowance remains.

$1,200

The 2020 survey found the shaft, Volvo Penta lip seal, cutless bearing and Max-Prop satisfactory. A January 2024 invoice in MALUHIA's aboard records documents R&R packing box and shaft seal for the same owner, although the vessel field says only BENETEAU, so association is probable rather than conclusive. This further lowers the expected spend; current Max-Prop service, cutless condition and alignment remain to be verified.

$800

Reduced by direct survey evidence and a current photograph confirming the installed Racor 500FG. The 34-gallon polyethylene tank, shutoff, A1 hose and primary/secondary filtration were satisfactory in 2020. The Racor housing now appears aged/soiled and filter age, tank cleanliness and current hose condition remain unknown, so inspection and possible polishing/selective renewal stay in the budget.

$1,400

Reduced by the 2020 survey, which identifies GOIOT cable steering to an aluminum quadrant, confirms the factory emergency tiller and found the mechanical systems operational. The evidence is six years old and gives no cable-replacement history, so current backlash, cable condition and quadrant attachment still need checking; there is no basis to presume a missing tiller or failed bearing.

$3,200

ADDED IN THIS RE-AUDIT - the previous version of this file omitted it entirely, which was a genuine gap rather than a conservatism. The listing dates the bottom paint to July 2025, so at a March 2028 departure it will be two years and eight months old, which is past the point where anyone would leave for a 6,000-mile passage and a year in warm water. This is a scheduled pre-departure item rather than a defect; what is uncertain is scope, not whether the boat comes out. It is also the lift into which the through-hull, drivetrain and any keel or rudder work should be scheduled, so the haul fee is charged here once only.

$800

Reduced materially by both the satisfactory 2020 hauled survey and the February 2026 invoice documenting replacement of raw-water thru-hull fitting(s), ball valve, hose/clamps, Groco strainer and scoop with Marelon components. The invoice does not state how many thru-hulls were replaced and does not cover every valve aboard. Current photography also shows verdigris around the electric-bilge-pump outlet valve, without proving leakage or dezincification, so every remaining valve still needs current exercise and inspection.
