Well
I have found i could not afford the bargains
I have become really good friends with the guy who took a pass on my current J24 to buy a J24 in Ct that was 3000 dollars less
I have to tell you the bargain J24 he got has every J24 wart i can think of right down to the Vermiculite keel sump and old style leaking
hatches
SO You really have to know what your getting yourself into because based on my search and the one we have done this season for a friend looking for the same boat as you
10k is going to be outboard powered Or have a really sad inboard we did not find any FWC diesel powered boats for under 20K
