The key word here is what boat do you have TODAY. We bought the IP almost exactly one year ago from the original owners. It was lightly used, especially in the last five years of their ownership as they took up golf and did not have time to golf and boat. Up to this point we seem to have been on a roughly three year plan of boat ownership, buying, refurbishing and selling. Strangely, almost all of these sales and purchases have been during the first week of July. The most fun to sail was the Catalina 27, the most fun with the family was the Catalina 25, the most comfortable to sleep on was the 30' Bayliner, the fastest was the Islander 28 and the most interesting is this 1990 Island Packet.
