LMAO! So, what is the lake sailor's equivalent of "Old Salt", anyway? I'd love to hear this guy's take on those of us..
In Response To: I am looking a sailboat, 30 years old that spent a year in salt water 12 years ago. Is it compromised? ()

Hi Clive,

...who actually dare to SAIL in salt water? (grin)

Having said that, if I were considering the purchase of two roughly equivalent boats - one that had lived in salt, and the other in fresh - I'd take the lake boat, hands down... But, as Braden mentions above, you might be needlessly disqualifying a potential great boat taking such a myopic approach...

Good luck, and best regards,

Jon
