Just needs FG repairs on the starboard side of the hull, no damage to the bulkhead. Quotes so far are ~$1200 Canuck bucks.
The owner was out of town when a fall storm hit, the boat was tied to a dock. Dock came loose, boat was between the dock & shore for 8 hrs.
Great deal... fully rigged, 2 yr old sails and impeccably maintained. I looked at it for a friend ,and told him he had 24hrs to make up his mind or I would buy it for the trailer (galvanized), sails and outboard.
He bought it, and will probably have $2500 in it by the time it's in the water. Jeremy is correct, the MacGregor 22s aren't the best sailing boats, but they draw ~14"! Shallow draft is big plus for a starter boat that will be used on the river system here, and he can launch it in his own yard.
I love trailerable boats. It allows you to be casual about boat ownership... no scheduled haulouts & launch, docking fees or storage.
Here's a pic of my chrysler 22 from a previous owner:
Draws 18" with the keel up!
