I am researching boats suitable as a first
boat for my wife and I to gain additional sailing experience. We've done some chartering in the
BVI and
PNW during the past year. I'm researching a variety of relatively inexpensive boats that would stand up to being sailed in Prince William Sound. The
boat would be based in Valdez AK. Recently I learned about Sceptre boats. A search of this forum provides limited information about the 41 and it's all positive. However there is nothing about the 36. After reading about lots of boats on this forum I've learned that generally if "ya own it ya love it". I've tried to find a Sceptre owners group but to no avail. Do any of you know about model specific problems concerning the Sceptre 36 that would be deal killers for you, or other problems other than the usual age related issues (blisters etc.) I should be aware of or asking specifically about as I educate myself about this boat? Thanks in advance for the information. I've learned more about sailing by reading and my limited participation in the forum than all the
books I've been able to read. You're a great bunch.
