I''m about to purchase something to sail around the Carribean for several months. My budget has led me to the following possibilities; are there any I should strike off the list immediately? Any particularly noteworthy boats here? Top priority are seaworthiness and reliability; comfort is a bonus only.

1987 Dehler 25

1983 Commodore 26

1964 Cal 28

1984 Hunter 25

1975 C&C 24

1977 C&C 26

1970 Yankee Dolphin 24

1977 AMF 26

1971 Irwin 25

1974 Ericson 27

1974 Grampian Marine 23

1966 Westerly 25

1978 Pearson 26

1974 Buccaneer "Fiesta 200" 24

So far, the C&C 24, the Westerly, and the Hunter look promising. Any advice will greatly help this first-time boat-buyer!

Thanks,
Simon
