Thinking of names....

"A fool and his money"

or

"Use to golf" (I'm giving up my golf membership to pay for it).

My wife loves it....big time Wow factor. Previous owner took immaculate
care of it. Well designed cabin. I can even walk in it, unlike most 25
footers.

Offering 20k tomorrow. Only needs GPS and bottom paint to be dialed in.
Light enough that my V-8 Explorer can haul it. Most of the time, it will be
moored at my friend's boathouse, in exchange for occasional use. (He's a
sailer-man).

Tell me what you think....before it's too late

Danger, Danger, Danger!!! Serious boat-itis....

Make the sale contingent upon the survey results being satisfactory to
you! You'll need it for insurance anyway and it could help in the
negotiations.

If you start having *any* second thoughts, walk away. We did that a
bunch of times. I later discovered that each of those boats had major
and minor failings that we didn't see immediately. Xan, on the other
hand, looked pretty ugly at first, but we both kept wanting to revisit
her.

There are a lot of great boats out there, and more "almost great" ones
-- for you and your intended purposes.
