Well, had a long visit with the female half owner. We went thru all of the systems and she was candid that the boat really needs to come out of the water for bottom maintenance. No known problems but she said she would feel better better doing that rather than risking selling me some unknown problems or a pig in a poke. But how do we deal with that expense and how does it affect price. Pulling it and minimum bottom maintenace will be at least $2K I bet.
Therein lies the dilemma. Do I buy it bottom sight unseen and play with it a season casually sailing as is or do we pull it and have a look see? I'm sending an experienced sailing bud to look over rigging and mechanicals etc to give me his opinion.
