Well, the best
boat that I can justify
buying is the little
C&C 25. Its a fine
boat and the best one for the muddy
ohio river upon which I live.
The thing is, its smaller than I want. Also, with my
retirement coming up, I want to buy the boat for where I want to be, not where I am.
But there is only one possible choice, another
C&C, a 1987 33 footer. Beautiful shape, assuming the balsa in the
hull s ok. They did a superficial cleanup of the boat and are asking too much for it, in my opinion. 28,500.
All of the
rigging,
sails engine etc are original. Appears to me that its on the cusp of needing a lot of new stuff.
I have not yet contemplated
shipping a boat in from elsewhere. There are a few locations a few days away by
water that have interesting boats,but I doubt I'll be motoring a boat 300 miles.in ,November.
At this point I'm thinking of waiting And watching the market.
I guess I don't need to be in a hurry to buy a boat so I can pay
winter storage on it before I ever sail it.
Any other ideas?
