Sailboat-Cruising.com asks: Need some guidance with all aspects (including those mysterious but all-revealing Design Ratios) of buying a secondhand boat? If so, you may want to take a look at our Boat Buyer's Bundle...

The custom-made Crealock 37s are valued between about $50K - $90K, but I'm selling 'Sophia' at a much reduced price since she needs some minor cosmetic repair work (finish and trim work etc) and I have no time to do the work myself nor do I have time to use the boat.



Will consider trade for a home, property, or land of equal value.
