I live on Kauai and am looking at a clean very original Catalina 36 in Honolulu about 95nm from home. I have about 5 years experience sailing but only lakes and Bays in Northern California, no blue water sailing at all! After i get this boat surveyed including the standing rigging i am going to try and hire a captain to help me sail her home. My QUESTION is, like i said this boat is original in that it has no equipment on it except a 30 year old VHF radio. The running rigging and sails are in good shape. What do you think i should do to the boat and what will a perspective captain require for the 95nm trip? Thanks!!!
