Whats your
budget? A 20 or 30 year old 30 footer in need of a total
rebuild will probably set you back in the region of 45 - 50,000. Nice
boats at least double. Did a fair bit of looking around a few years back and slowly moved up sizes and ended up building a cat. Not a lot of choices for a pen, long waiting lists for all and bloody expensive. If you want to stay in the Swan river on a
mooring you need a
mast that drops as we have the pleasure of a bridge at the entrance that is only 7.4 meters. Can moor or
anchor 30 or 60 minutes, by car, south however for more realistic prices.
Im just inland from Fremantle which is Perths port.
Lots of luck in your
endeavour
Mike
