I almost bought a Pearson 28 from some idiot on City Island NY.

It wasn't the boat, it was the idiot.

Okay, everyone come clean....what's the worst boat buying mistake you
ALMOST
made?
For me, before I had a clue about good old boats....

I made an offer on a sad and rather homely looking Tanzer 26!
I nearly made an offer on an infamous Seidelman 25!
I looked at a early 80's Hunter 27! Holy weatherhelm!
I considered a tired Hunter 33! Zikes!
I nearly bought a Catalina 25 with bad decks and rusted keelbolts!

C'mon! I'm sure some of you have considered worse! No offense intended to
owners of the above. If it works for you, great.

What a poor troll. I don't think there's a single P28 on City island.

How many idiots would you say on City Is.?

I felt that the above comment and it's phrasing said it all.
I was right.

I like to Mount Gays and drink rum too.

A friend of mine would dispute both.
He like Mount Gay and drink it in anything but moderation.

And . . . I almost bought a Vindo. Boy, I am I glad I got out of that one.
