Generally, free sailboats can get very, very expensive.

"Free" Sailboat: 1976 Columbia 9.6, 31 1/2', 10 1/2' beam, 5 1/2' draught, with Yanmar 3GM diesel engine and oversize standing rigging, windlass and other stuff ready to be installed. Live aboard now but needs more work to be fit for ocean duty. Comes with 52 yr. hetero-sexual, blond haired blue eyed male who has low maintenance who can help with upkeep and financial assistance sort of. Contact for more details and comments on ad content...../)......

your post read very good and got more interesting especially reading, hetero-sexual, blue eyed, blond and then came the kicker "male" as it was missing the FE in front of it, so I'm no longer interested in the boat, free or not.

If you are really looking for a free sailboat, walk the docks of your local marinas. Most have a number of boats which have not moved in many years (looking at the bottom growth will give you a good indication). Chat to the harbormaster - they may be happy to have somebody remove or pay for a boat which has sat there for a long while without slip fees being paid...

However, most importantly, listen to the 'dog. There ain't nothing so expensive as a free boat.
