You might be better off looking for an older Pfaff sewing machine. These were very heavily built machines and are quite capable of tackling most of your boat-related sewing projects. You can often find a Pfaff 360 or 260 in good shape for under $300.
The owner's and service manuals for a lot of the older Pfaff machines is available on-line for free or at very low-cost. Maintenance on them is fairly simple too, since they don't have any electronic "brains".

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.
