I'd probably go for a Catalina 27 with an outboard.
How's the bottom?
How's the sails?
NewPort's don't hold their value that well.

Hi there,

what do you think:

Is $8000 a reasonable price for a
Newport 27 from the early eighties,
in very good condition, with a
pretty unused freshwater cooled
diesel, but standing rigging that
needs to be changed?

I'd appreciate any comments,

Chris
