Tomorrow I am driving about three hours to look at a early 1980's Com-Pac 16. I have been looking for a boat for a while, and have pretty much decided that this model is the best for my needs.
If anybody has any suggestions on "danger spots" for me to look for on a Com-Pac 16, I am wide open to your advice. The price, including running motor and trailer (new wheels and bearings), is $2,000. It has updated (heavier) rigging, but the interior is basically unfinished. Evidently, there is a soft spot on the interior floor which a previous owner was about to work on before selling the boat.
I will need to buy or make cushions (are there patterns available?). The owner also told me that while the main is in great condition, the jib should be replaced soon.
