My favorite little boat
In Response To: This is part of my newest strategy with maybe buying a small Cal 20 ()
is the O'Day Mariner. I love the way that boat sails and looks and feels. At any given time, there are usually at least two examples on the market in our neighborhood ranging in price from $1,100 - $4,000. One lucky sod in our club picked one up with new sails and a 3 yr old outboard for $500 a couple of years ago.
