So a quick follow up on this post, we bought a new boat! Well "new" to us. 1974 Oday 27. It needs a little work (some soft spots on deck and a little water damage on inside from a small leak in deck and new cushions are a must.... but for $575 we couldn't say no!)
I think this will be a good starter project to get our feet wet. Eventually we want a cruiser that our family of 5 can live on, but that will still be a few years away! Stay tuned. I'll probably post some rehab posts on our progress.
