Boats for the Buck
 

Today's top pick?

The Columbia 36 by BC. These tough little boats have taken the years
well and have much more character than the Catalinas of the day. Build
quality was generally pretty good, though interiors will need a
freshening for certain. Some of these will also need a repower. Some
years ago I was offered a free one, but passed. A really nice one might
bring 25K and that's a nice roomy stiff sailboat perfect for a family
who doesn't need a sailboat with a bathtub shaped cockpit that seats
12. In 1970 she was under 20K new!!!
