I am considering a 42' sailboat that is in the
Delta. It needs a
refit and
paint inside & out. We're looking for a
DIY boatyard somewhere in the Bay Area or in the
Delta that can haul a
multihull and that will allow us to do a lot of our own
work with a nice campground nearby or a lot of
cheap rentals or even houseboat rentals. We will need a good
chandlery and a good
hardware store nearby as well. We plan to get down to cruising trim (down to maybe 10 boxes of uselessness in my mom's attic plus suitcases and tools to go) and be ready to go cruising, but take a
refit detour for a few months and
cruise the Delta a bit at first when the
boat is done.
What say you, wise old crustaceans? Anything inexpensive and good out there sans gunfights and meth labs?
This is
funny, the spell checker doesn't recognize
chandlery.
