Catalina Capri 25 $750. Designed in the US with mhd rig - Ben Lexcen drew the fractional rig for the local ones. Too much bustle for a 25 footer and not sure why the transom would be modified like that, but for $750..............

Thought this was a relevant to the thread. Great story of a cheap boats revival and how far it can take a person.

Nice little video, but cheap sea cocks by the looks of it (7:19), a bit of a worry.

All I saw was a pretty girl and some absolutely stunning timber work! That cockpit is a work of art.

I think that might be a Swanson 31 Carmen. Bit hard to tell from the pics but I did grow up on one and it certainly looks familiar.

Yes looks like a Swanson Carmen 31 but why would the seller list it as a 26 footer? So would more likely be a 27 as per Ramona?

She's a 27, we owned one for 35 years, windows, bilge and stern are very familiar to me.

Yeah, both look pretty good for the price, cheap way to get on the water in a decent boat, if basics like sails and the like are half decent
