With Neal as an authority this auction has generated a lot of interest. So far, in three
days, it has zero bids. With not reserve, does this mean someone can get it for $900?

Well, yes. It wouldn't work for me, as it's 3000+ miles away,
but this is the epitome of a motivated seller. It's not the
first time this boat's been listed on ebay. Don't know why it
didn't sell the first time.

Katy is confused as usual. A cruising permit costs 300 bucks now
for boats 35 feet and over. It is only half that for boats under
35 feet. But for a Westerly Centaur they let you in for free and
give you a medal for bravery in the face of depressingly slow
speeds and uttermost homeliness.

Check the buc value. For a Coronado 27 in good shape it is
listed in the mid-seven thousand range. It notes that excellent
examples such as mine can sell for much much more.

I've been offered fifteen grand for mine and I wouldn't part
with her for twice that amount. Unlike that fool Bobsprit, I've
spent enough time, money and labor on "Cut the Mustard" to
make her a labor of love and a sailing vessel beyond compare.

All her fittings and gear are top-notch and almost new as I
constantly upgrade. New sails, new running rigging, new standing
rigging, new instruments, new motor, and on and on and on.
Anytime I find something that might need improving I improve
it. Anything that's tried and true I take care of it.

I'll leave it to somebody else so they can have a fine
vessel for a low price. It does look like a fixer-upper.

I'd be worried about the overhead in the accommodation.
Is that mold and mildew I see or is that rotten coring
coming through the liner? Also, I've got to wonder why
the bottom was sanded down to the fiberglass. Blisters?
and a quick cover-up job? And what about the regular
draft keel which gives it close to five feet of draft?
I wonder what kind of shape the keel bolts are in?

If somebody who wanted a good project boat on which
he planned to spend about ten grand and if he could get
it for less then two grand it might be worth looking into.

It's in a good location for Scotty to consider upgrading that
Seidellman of his.

In case your chubby little fingers can't seem to click on the right link:

Value Explanation — N.A.D.A. has been collecting, analyzing, and publishing used values since 1933. The retail values listed are a guideline for appraisal purposes only. These values should be used strictly as a reference source for valuing used vessels. It is not, and should not be considered absolute. The values are a reflection of the boats condition and popularity. It may be necessary to adjust listed values to meet market conditions in your area. While on line values are similar to other N.A.D.A. published values, these values are intended for retail consumer use.

Low Retail Value — A low retail valued boat will show excessive wear and tear either cosmetically and/or mechanically. This boat will require cosmetic or mechanical work and may or may not be in running order. The buyer can expect to invest in cosmetic and/or mechanical work. Low retail vessels usually are not found on a dealer's lot.

Average Retail Value — An average retail valued boat should be in good condition with no visible damage or defects. This boat will show moderate wear and tear and will be in sound running condition. The buyer might need to invest in either minor cosmetic or mechanical work.



Note: Vessels in exceptional condition can be worth a significantly higher value than the Average Retail Price shown.

Booby is so jealous. While he buys boats, fills them with useless
crap and fills the cockpit with ugly pale women who look like
lost souls then sells them at a loss he can't stand the fact some
of us have boats whose value increases constantly because of
expert care and fitting out while actually sailing oceans visiting
foreign countries and having name recognition both at sea and in
port and on the Web all adds value to a fine blue water/coastal
cruiser.

You could probably get in as a 31-footer for 150 bucks.

Your website may be awesome, but your brain seems to be miniscule! Didn't you see that
the link I provided for an auction that ended on Oct 12 is for the same boat that has an
auction open for the last 6 days, with no bids?

Obviously the original bidders had a chance to check out the quality and decided its not
worth the price of sails.

Or do you think that in a vast conspiracy, someone has cornered the Coronado market and is
hiding them at Yankee Point Marina in VA, offering one every two weeks on Ebay?

Almost 1000 C&C 27s were made in a 12 year run. The Coronado 27 only had a 4 year run
before the company went belly up.

Captain Neal, He's da MAN!

year run

The Coronado 27 was horribly dated before her first mold cracked. It was part
of the company's folly that made a joke of both the Coronado name and the 27
herself.
Only the Mac26X gets more laughs, but at least their booms don't flex like
cooked pasta!

Prove my point. C&C 27's are light and cheap boats built for
club racing and little else. They sold well for that very reason.

Now, the Coronado 27 on the other hand was built to cruise and
to cruise in comfort. The company went belly up because they
were selling the Coronado line way too cheap. You can't sell
a mid-weight cruising boat with proper fittings for nothing and
expect to stay in business. They just had a bad business plan -
not a bad line of boats.

Look at the interior plans and you will see it is
copied directly from a Coronado 27, Too bad
the didn't copy the house too because that of
the C&C 27 is plain and ugly.

Everbody who knows anything at all knows the
C&C 27 is a joke of a boat.

It's small, it's lightly built, it uses cheap fittings,

Unlike the Coronado which gets the "cheapest construction" nod from Don Casey:

it's slower than a well-sailed Coronado 27, it isn't

But the Coronado PHRH is 230, while the C&C is 180 for the Mark 3.

even half as seaworthy as a Coronado 27 and I
could go on and on. The poor little C&C 27 was
knocked out of a mold on the cheap as a day
sailer and entry level round the buoys pretend
racer. It has no heritage, it has no class, it has
no real value.

That's not what the review says:
