Au Contraire, Mon Frère, on the last picture there seems to be a straight tranny poking out of the Bell Housing. But, it is Volvo Green . . . .

I love the look of the boat from the outside and it is likely a V-drive, not a sail drive and yes, they are expensive to replace if original. One of the reasons this boat wouldn't appeal to me, especially as a cruiser is how dark it is down below. While the narrow sleek looking windows on the coach roof look wicked fast, they really don't allow much light, especially forward of the galley. Not a big deal if you're a racer guy who only sends someone down below to haul in the spinnaker, but we all know that most boat purchases get a thumbs up or thumbs down by the "co-sailor" that tries to make a boat interior look inhabitable. This boat looks more like a nicely appointed dungeon than an inviting place to spend a few weeks. I compare how bright my Landfall 35 is to this interior and it is no contest. Perhaps some nice images with soft warm lighting down below would help this boat find a new home..
