I have many examples of sisterships to show colors, etc. I regret misplacing the shots of the one in
N. Ft. Myers. The interior needs TLC mostly to clean out the previous bachelor's "stuff".
Here is a similar 25.5 sailing. It shows…

All very good points. I like the 4 people/group/club idea. I will think on this tonight and write up some ideas. :-)

Note, ugly things like insurance and liability always pop up. Learning to sail will also teach you a
lot about yacht ownership, maintenance, etc. Someone or some LLC has to be responsible
especially off-shore. Tied to the dock is less…

Yes, I would consider this, as it sounds like a great deal. :-) I agree about the small outboard engine. Truly a diesel engine can make such a sickening stench/smell when running that it wouldn't be a bad idea to use something else. :-) Thank…

Susan,
Thanks for the reply. Another option for the engine situation is to add a small outboard on a bracket. Those
are handy in case the diesel does not work. Also, on a small boat the diesel can heat up the cabin which
may not be desirable in…

I like the free option if you go that route. :-) I don't know how to sail yet, but I'm wanting to learn. Sounds like this one needs a little work before it could actually go out. I'm not a diesel mechanic, but I think I could probably…

The guy showed me that thenewer engine runs…See More
