Re: Santana 37 - Ready to Cruise - $35000

I am dropping the price to $30,000 obo.

We don't have to sell it, but I'm leaving for the summer and would like not to pay slip fees for 3 months while I'm gone.

re: Santana 37 - Ready to Cruise - $35000

It's a 35 gallon tank, and I burn 0.9 - 1.0 gallons per hour at 2000 - 2200 rpm. This gives me a speed of between 6.9 and 7.5 knots.
