Yeah, we're in the process of accepting (likely) a Cal 39. The guy
did some good cruising in it, but let it sit (fortunately fresh water) for several years and used it as a storage for his junk. We had it surveyed (insurance requires it) and the surveyor gave an estimate of probably $15K less than its value, because he couldn't get to a lot the boat interior. It's mostly junk, so I think we're going to get a crew over there this week to toss all his crap. -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com "felton" wrote in message ...

In a weak moment, I was considering buying a "project" Boston Whaler Harpoon a few weeks ago. I have been wanting a sailing dinghy to sail in the evenings at a lake closer to home as my boat is an hour and a half (one way) for me. What a wreck. It was half full of water, missing the rudder/tiller and had a nest of ducks living in it, eggs and all. The guy wasn't exactly giving it away, either  |

With a Catalina 27 going for $4500, your POS is worth about $35. Pathetic Earthlings! No one can save you now! |

So now Satan's a fire breathing dragon? I think you're crossing your metaphors there.... -- katysails s/v Chanteuse Kirie Elite 32 http://katysails.tripod.com "Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea." - Robert A. Heinlein |
