I'm looking at buying a steel boat for bluewater cruising around 32 -
34', possibly a lot of it singlehanded. I had a look at an Ebbtide 33
yesterday, Alan Pape design, professionally built at Oceancraft in UK.
20 years old but little rust inside or out. Has anyone any experience
of these boats or advice of any advice of potenial problems i should
look out for?

Thanks

Paddy
