Made decision in December to cruise. Plan on leaving summer 2004. Where to find listings of sailboats(used) already outfitted for cruising? Dave.

My Next Door neighbor has an excellent O''Day
Center Cockpit 37''er that has all the gear and has been there and done that. In excellent condition, well appointed and ready to go. $47,000.00

Check out www.yachtworld.com. That is one of the best sites for finding boats. Note that the listings may or may not be "already outfitted for cruising." That is subject to personal definition. But it''s very easy to put in different search criteria to check out what''s on the market right now. You can check just by price, by length, model year, or specific builder. It''s a great site for day dreaming. Sailnet also has a used boat site, but it has yet to catch on.

try soundings.com

Atcually, the complete address for Soundings is www.soundingsonline.com. All that does anymore is kick you into www.boattraderonline.com when you click on boats for sale. It is worth checking out also. I ran a couple of searches for boats I''m interested in and came up with a couple of hits not on Yachtworld. Looks like I need to check Boat Trader more often.

Mitch:
Looks like you and I have that "looking" disease with 4 footitis complications, huh?

Jim, it''s worse than that. I have 6-9 footitis. Still waiting for that big lottery win.
