Hi all
Looking at a really nice bluejay hull #1752
What should I be concern with if anything when I go to look at this boat.
Gross capacity beam x. L.o.a = 4 persons max is what I got when using formula.
This will be my first boat and will be sailing at first single handed. Later I'll add my wife and very young son. So we together weight 385# and will be sailing mainly on a 3sq mile lake with good afternoon wind.
I understand this might be my first boat of many if I stick with the hobbie of sailing. This is the cleanest boat in my price range in my area.
Is it easy to add float bags for safety?
Can I add self bailing ports at transom, if this indeed would be helpful?
The fellow says new sails purchased within ten years ago.
Work was done to leaky center board trunk in the 80's. And he goes on to say it doesn't leak.
It comes with an nice looking trailer. A mount for an outboard motor.
Thanks for any input on my potential purchase.
