HELP!!!
I can't make my mind up. I'm lookiing at 71 Venture 222. Price is $1,500. Here are the pros and cons:
Pros: 1 year old main sail
new boom traveler
standing rigging on a year old including turnbuckles
trailer in good shape
9.9hp Johnson outboard
hull paint and top side good / Bottom needs repainted in a year
keel appears to be ok / brand new winch/brake/cable
Cons:
Needs a real good scrubbing
Exterior could use a little TLC, but nothing major
Interior is trashed! no wood rot, but everything is a mess and extremely dirty. Pretty much I am looking a full rebuild as far as paint, cabinets, and cushions go (and probably electrical)
So... is the bad interior worth getting everything else for the price?
I'm looking for a good day sailor where small kids could nap below the deckl. Thanks for your input!!!!
