Hello All,
Currently looking at an Oday 28. Owner passed away and family just looking for dock fees. Anyway, as this would be my first venture in the sailboat world what is the most critical part to look at with the boat. Boat is currently in the water. Your opinioins on the Oday 28 in general and any negatives concerning the boat.
I have been told it has a diesel fresh water cooled serviced in 2010. Other then that the family members do not know much about it. They r just looking to get rid of it. I have looked at other boats, Catalina 25's in particular but my wife stated to me that of all the boats we looked at this boat felt the most stable platform when we stepped on to it. Its a great price for us just really worried about buying a money pit. This will be a starter boat for myself and my 10 year old daughter who is now very much into sailing. I know these r broad questions but just really looking for opinions on the boat and if this seems like a good fit.
Thanks for any information you could provide.
