Default For Those Who Know Sailboats

oups.com...
My wife has always wanted to learn to sail, and have a sailboat, this
one seems to fit us, and is trailerable. I know bass boats, not
sailboats, so please take a look. I went and looked at it, and for
it's age, it's immaculate. He acts as he'll come down a little. Thanks.


Since no one else is gonna step up & say it........
Try to find her sailing lessons... 1st on a dinghy like a 420, and then on a
keel boat. She'll enjoy the classes and might even make some friends who
already have a boat...saving you $4500.
I crewed for 5 years on someone elses boat.. first a Viking 28 and then a
Mirage 33. Helps to find a generous skipper who pays all the freight. ;-)
