I am looking at this boat. It is a 1984 and in great shape.
Can anyone give me some views on this boat???

A friend has a 40. We have an O'Day 37. How much difference do three feet
make? A world of difference. His boat seems ten times the size of ours. And
all that neat woodwork. A very comfortable boat though slow in anything but a
half gale. He had to repack the rudder shafy and the wheel is very stiff.
Can't really get a feel for how she is responding. Engine is fine. He
installed an anchor windlass, but too small a one. Amazing a boat that size
and that heavy would not have a windlass as standard equipment.
