Ryan, If you're primarily looking to cruise, you may also consider a Landfall 35 or 38 although they're likely a bit more expensive after everything has been done to make them seaworthy. The 35 has a draft under 5' and an ICW friendly mast height, should your cruising plans take you south from the NY/NJ area. >From the listing you show, it appears that the owner stopped "improving" the boat in 2010. Does that mean the boat has been sitting since then? If so, budget about $1000 per year extra for every year the boat sits unused, above and beyond the cost of the boat, AND in addition to the reason the owner decided it was too expensive to fix whatever was keeping him from sailing the boat to begin with. Engine, tankage, pumps, running and standing rigging, steering gear all like to stay functional, moving and lubricated. If this was a fresh water boat, the cost could scale down a bit, but the boat seems to be priced as a "fixer-upper"..and the Maine location suggests it spent time in the ocean. Happy Hunting!

Any advice if I go up to look at her? She definitely appears to need a little TLC, but I'm looking for a bargain with good bones that I can fix up like I did my 30-1. > > Thanks in advance, > Ryan > > Sent from my iPhone _______________________________________________ This list is supported by the generous donations of our members.
