The Art of Buying a Used Sailboat
 

http://sailquest.com/market/intro.htm

"
First time buyers will quickly discover that it is possible to buy a
good size sailboat on the used market for less than half of what most
people pay for the average family car - and only a fraction of what
people pay for a nice water-front cottage.

Prospective buyers will also discover that the used market has been
the main source of sailboats in central Canada for well over a dozen
years. The supply of brand new sailboats largely disappeared in the
mid to late 1980s when the market became saturated and the phenomenal
growth in the popularity of sailing reached its peak."
