I brought this boat home the other day. I have been going through everything and hope to give it a 'test sail' this weekend.
Everything seems to be there and in reasonable shape . . . even found an unused boom vang in the sail bag.
My previous sailboat was a Catalina 22. This boat looks more like a slam-dunk to trailer launch and set up. I am not sure how much of a 'performer' the boat is, but it seems to have a strong following and on-going support.
Anyway, I'll be doing some light restoration work over the winter, so I may run into some questions and issues. I plan on refurbishing the keel and re-finishing the hull and topsides. The rigging all seems 'serviceable'.
