Famous Boat for Sale "Dove"
******"Dove" Famous boat for sale above link.
never heard of it...
Did you click on link? Read this: Actually the boat for sale is the one used in the last third of the circumnavigation (actual name was "Return of Dove". First Dove was destroyed in Hurricane where it was left on St Thomas. From wikipedia: Robin started his journey on the original Dove, a 24 foot Lapworth sloop. On reaching the Caribbean, Dove was replaced by Return of Dove, a 33 foot Allied Luders sloop.[2] Dove sank in Hurricane Marilyn in 1995. "The Return of Dove was found in Hawaii by Mark and Beverly Langley in 2000. They restored her in 2001. She was sold again in 2004 and is believed to be still in Hawaii.[3]"

The Return of Dove was found in Hawaii by Mark and Beverly Langley in 2000. They restored her in 2001. She was sold again in 2004 and is believed to be still in Hawaii.[3] documentation isn't even mentioned? The ad is trying to hard to sell the boat as famous but provides very little information otherwise.
I am 99.9% sure the boat for sale is "Return of Dove". In 1981 I delivered a boat from Tampa Florida to St. Thomas. At that time I had not heard of the Dove story. A crew member looked to the boat docked next to us and said "look, it is the Dove". Next to us was the 24 foot 1st Dove. I later read the National Geographic articles. Also for sale is the Monitor wind vane: http://honolulu.craigslist.org/oah/boa/3073536127.html
Man, that movie was bad! Nice piece to have though...
I read somthing a while back that said National Geographic was getting a little upset with Robin as there was not much action happening during his sail. I guess they wanted more typoons and such. I saw the movie over 25 years ago so don't remember much. I need to see it again. There were three issues of National Geographic and those articles were good.
I think the movie is on Netflix.
Followed the story, saw the movie. But that was many years ago. Robin Lee Graham moved on to another adventure in his life. What does any of that have to do with the value of the boat in this or any competitive market? Aside from the past commercial exposure it is not a vintage or pedigreed boat. Like anything else, it is worth only what it is worth to an informed, knowledgable, willing and capable buyer. Right move cassey1999, reduce price to develop a sale - IMHO
It's not my boat and I am not involved in sale. Know nothing of the boat or owner besides what I have presented. Boat seems to be a fair price for its condition and capabilities.
I hate admit it but I think watching that movie way back about 1975 is why I got interested in sailing on the first place. That and moving to the shores of Lake Huron and not seeing any ski hills, sold my skis and bought a sailboat.
Looks like an interesting boat though. I wouldn't mind chartering an older boat like this if I could find one to charter. Anyone know of anywhere that does that?
The movie was good, but like a lot of movies, not quite correct on many items. Nor would I pay more $$ to have this boat. Just another plastic tub IMHO! No better worst than my Jeanneau, other than that boat has been written about, been in NG, etc. The big issue is that it is in Hawaii vs the mainland somewhere, then it probably would have gotten a few more $$, or been able to be sold for a bit more. Marty
The movie - which I saw for the first time last year - was pretty awful, but I followed the stories in NG magazine as a kid.

'Drug-Running' Sailboat up for Sale | Video |
Saiboat dove ii is abandoned and adrift in north atlantic.
The yacht with five crew on board was caught by storm, suffering water ingress and in danger of sinking.
Weather conditions were particularly harsh with a swell of up to six meters. The crew sent distress call to the local authorities, which transferred the call to Rescue Coordination Center. The bulk carrier Newseas Jade reported to the distress call and headed to the troubled sailing yacht, but was unable to evacuate the people, due to severe storm. However, the cargo ship remained near the yacht and acted as breakwater, monitoring the development of the situation.
Several hours later at the scene of the troubled sailing yacht Dove II arrived also another bulk carrier Asia Pearl V, which was also unable to rescue the distressed crew. Another sailing yacht Tilly Mint, which was also in vicinity headed to the troubled boat. Being sheltered by the two cargo ships, the Tilly Mint succeeded to maneuver and reach the troubled yacht, evacuating all the five people, including two children. The large-scale search and rescue operation was successful, but the salvage was not possible and the yacht was remained adrift and disabled in North Atlantic.
The rescued people were in good health and without need of medical assistance. The cargo ships were released to resume their voyages. The sailing yacht Tilly Mint headed to Caribbean, where the distressed family will be disembarked.
Luckily the situation with the troubled yachtsmen developed without injuries and casualties.
