First boat purchase 35ft. Columbia?

[Loofa]

Yeah i've been pounding craigslist up and down the eastern shores looking for something in the 28-35 range that was decent priced. On this particular boat apparently there were only a couple small softspots, from what I read it isnt that expensive to do just labor intensive. The other thing that sucks about this boat is that there are no furlings and would be hard to man solo.

Sailingdogs blurb on Boat Inspection Trip Tips was most helpful, i'll definately be putting some of that into practice. I'll let you all know what develops! >.<
