I just purchased a mariner 32 1972 hull 37 named Aegir in Honolulu . We are the second owner and hope for the best and plan for the worst. That's all you can do wither old boats . The main mast has been replaced with aluminum , teak decks replaced with glass. She seams to be stout . Honolulu sucks gota go.

IIRC, these are sound boats but condition rules. A boat that old can
have many issues which would make voyaging inadvisable. Did you get a
good survey?
