How good a friend is he... a really good friend won't try to sell you a boat if its got issues... a bad friend might try and pawn a lemon off on you... In the first case, you'll still be friends, in the second, why would you want to be?
A Seafarer 24 should be a pretty nice upgrade for you. A 17' flat bed trailer is a bit on the short side for it...since you'd have almost a third of the boat hanging off the trailer...probably the aft 1/3 where most of the weight of the boat would be in many cases...leaving the trailer horribly unbalanced and the boat precariously perched.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
