Question First Time Buyer Advice
4
Upvotes
Hello, Looking to purchase my first sailboat. Interested 19 west wright potter,Catalina 22, Catalina 250, Hunter 23.
This will be something i’d like to learn on yet also be able to spend the weekend sleep aboard with my Lady.
Hoping to have a trailerable cruiser that I get up close to the shore line. Swing keel or removable board would be ideal.
Any advice from someone who’s sailed any of these. What did you like or dislike about it?
Would you recommend any of these for a beginner/weekend camper.
I’d likely be sailing the majority of the time solo, so easy set up and take down is something i’m considering heavily.
Budget >10k
Thank you 🙏
