Want To Buy: Trailer Sailer Sarasota Florida

[CaptainSRQ]

I'm located in the Sarasota, FL area. Looking for a boat that I'll dry sail off the trailer in Sarasota Bay and along the gulf coast. Shoal draft or centerboard preferred for ease of trailering.

Something like Catalina 25/27, O'Day 25/26, Hunter 260, S2 7.9, etc. Also open to more classic designs. Not planning to race - family cruiser/weekend camping.

Will be launching with tractor (and or hoist if under 3ton) and storing fully rigged. OK with some projects but not looking for a complete overhaul. Will to travel to get boat or transport from neighboring states. Budget <$7500.

Thanks in advance!
