I have just agreed to purchase a 1985 model ODay 26. The boat look like it just came off the showroom floor on the interior, the exterior needed cleaning and waxing. Mast, sails, rigging, and overall condition of the deck and hull seemed much above average. Is there anything in particular about this model that I need to be aware of or to take a second look at. Previous experience is with a 1984 Catalina 25 Swing Keel. Ben Allen Montgomery, AL

Has it been surveyed?
Ben, Congrats on your find! A really clean O'day is sometimes hard to find (though of course all O'day represented on the board are immaculate, no doubt
) Has the boat been surveyed? I don't know of anything in particular to look for on your boat, but a professional eye is _never_ a bad idea in the boat buying process. Let us know how it works out! Justin - O'day Owner's Web

I have the same boat and have had no problems for the past 7 years. The 26 is hard to find since they only made them for a few years, especially on the west cost. Herb
