No. A boat with NEW sails is more desirable.


Yeah right! Then people would say. "Look at that stupid bitch. She spent
two thousand dollars on sails for a 300 dollar boat." Duh!

Funny, I got new sails for my Albacore and the P.O. bought new sails for
our yacht a few months before we bought it. Both boats are *far* older
than the boat you showed us pictures of. No-one is laughing at us and
most fellow skippers are quite envious.
