Hi all,
I have searched high and low, but I can find zero information on the Vivre II Sorcerer (1987 i believe? But that is literally all i could find out... Does anyone here know anything about the boat itself or the company that designed/made it?
Thanks in advance

its a Hills and Cameron Sorcerer, assume the name of the vessel is Vivre II. I've got the same make, but looking at the pictures its missing just about everything of value ie no winches, not mainsheet track, no mast and rigigng.

Thanks for the answers, I was looking for a project boat to build with some friends and our main limitation was budget... So free and still floating sounded like a great place to start. The owner probably took everything of value. But I was thinking we might be able to buy back a couple things. Would that be a good place to start? Or is it better to look for something a little less bare? We have a lot of experience fixing and rebuilding, but no experience with boats in general...
Thanks again

My take would be buy one that needed a good tidy up and clean, will ultimately work out cheaper.

agree with UncleBob, you'll be up for quite a bit of cash for the parts needed to get it sailing again.
