LOL.... Yeah, a typical errand... running down to the local store for a bluewater pocket cruiser.

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.

Lots of work!

These things go much easier without a little woman!

I had decided that the money I was saving for the downpayment of a 40-50,000 boat would be better served to pay off my student loan. When I was debt free and had another few grand saved I'd start looking again. I almost didn't even go look at the boat.

When I got there and saw the boats potential I was hooked. A boat without a mortage on it could have me cruising by the fall. I have a lot of work to do. I made a list a page long. The last two sailboats I owned I did a lot of upgrades and repairs, but nothing like this. I'm moving it tomorrow from the previous owners yard. I'll post some pics soon and a little more about the boat. Thanks Brandon

To my knowledge, there aren't a lot of PSC 25's out there, so great find! The ones that are around on the market seem like one of the best values in the PSC line of pre-owned boats. Can't wait to see the pictures!
