Jeff... you'd recomend a Whitby?? One with the screwed together hull joint???
And didn't the Cabo's back then have teak decks?? Actually...I like that boat...didn't realize the older ones were so affordable until I checked YW.
As to the Valiant Espirit...I've never seen one but the YW pix and specs look good. But this description:
" Her bottom was peeled, properly dried and barrier-coated. "
makes me think of blisters again!
And of course any of those boats will have old fiberglass.
See what I mean about budget cruisers? Somethings gotta give!
That said...Every boat you recommended is worthy of consideration!
