Hello all,
I am 1 month new to the Sailboat Owners world. Wow, what a great resource.
I am in the market of buying a small cruiser. My goal is to have one purchased no later spring 2011. I live in the Seattle-Tacoma area, love water, and have sailed many times on 8' to 65' boats.....mostly small cruisers 18' to 35'.
I am willing to spend up to $10K, and no older boats than approx 1985. I also want to sail more than think about sailing while fixing a boat. I believe I have narrowed down my selection of cruisers to the list below.
If you could help me select a great trailer cruiser, I would be much thankful. I have Suburban for a boat hauler.
I am not limited to the list shown, but really have looked and sailed many small boats. I think these are some of the best out there, but you guys know more than I if you own or have owned any of these boats or other small cruisers.
- Hunter 23.5 or 25.5
- Rhodes 22
- Cat 22 or 25
- West Wight Potter 19
- Oday 25
Ahoy,
Rob
