Boats Less Than $30K Recent Noteworthy Finds
@sailpower these are both great old boats, but I'm biased. Have owned both.

Yes, I started out looking at 365's but ended up with a 424.
It was a great liveaboard while I had it. I used the shower because I was on a mooring.
My avatar is hull #1. I think mine was 75.

The T stands for traditional, designed by Ray Wall.
The Merlin is newer and was designed by Tony Castro.
Mainesail has a CS36T - deep keel though.
I disagree the shoal draft is most sought after - the deep keel version sails better as well.

Re: Boats Less Than $30K Recent Noteworthy Finds
Recent ebay auctions, possibly some good winter specials:
1981 Pearson 35, $12,000 or make an offer:
LOW RESERVE! 1981 35' Pearson Classic Sailboat Best Value Boat for Fall Sailing! | eBay
1997 Bruce Roberts STEEL 31 foot cutter, currently at $7,000:
Bruce Roberts Steel Cutter Sailboat | eBay
1984 Hunter 34, currently under $3,000:
HUNTER 34 FOOT SAILBOAT 1983 WITH DIESEL YANMAR DIESEL INBOARD | eBay
Personally, I think the Pearson 35 is a decent boat if you want to do the Bahamas and the Caribbean on a budget. The shallow draft is a real feature. Solid boat, but small below for a 35 compared to something more modern.

This one is well under $30k, but I'm not sure you could pay me to take it.

Just trying to help someone that obviously needs, connecting a seller and a buyer. |
Update, I'm back in the US now but just before I left I ran into the owner, he stated " Engine overheated and burned up, sailing downwind got caught in a storm and ripped up the genny because the roller jammed up and he couldn't get it in fast enough. "
http://sandiego.craigslist.org/csd/boa/5938973569.html
Just saw he dropped the price to $9999 for a quick sale.  It's a Westsail 32 with lots of gear...good price for the right person!

I agree with your opinion - I wouldn't take it either.
