I found a good deal on a 70's
MacGregor Venture 17. I managed to get the
price down to 900$ with
trailer and no
motor. The
boat seems in good condition. The
keel has some cracks in it,
deck is in good condition. Has a colapsable
furler with 3
sails in good condition.
I currently have an Evans 16 sailboat, it has an open
cabin, the
trailer is not so good because it makes the
boat quite wobbly when trailered. I dont have a spare tire for this trailer. No
furler, the
keel is good. Also, my main has no reefing points. The Evans 16 is a nice boat with a very wide and spacious
deck, at its narrowest is 6foot where the
macgregor is 5. The beam on the macgregor is 6.3ft as the evans is 6.8.
I am basically trying to decide if i should get the Venture 17 and sell my boat.
Any ideas would be much appreciated.
Thank you,
