Great video as always. Here are two suggestions for future videos - used blue water sailboats (boats that can cross the Atlantic) and used live aboard sailboats.
My cheap boat was a MacGregor 26. Queen size aft bed, will sleep 5 total, small head with a porta potty, 7 horse Honda outboard, 4 sails, sink, stove, table, pop top, great lighting, Danforth anchors, bow roller, swim ladder, 18" draft with the retractable keel up, water ballasted. Only weighed 1,600 pounds, so I could tow it with a Kia V6 SUV. Unsinkable. All lines led back to the pulpit. Tons of fun! Torture tested it in a 25-30 knot blow. $4,500 on a trailer. I loved it. My wife hated it. Made her sick.
I love these boat daydream videos. I'm always checking craigslist to see what comes up. I over-paid a bit for my SJ21 but it was in great shape from a trustworthy owner and truly ready to sail. Spending more was totally worth it. I spent over a year watching the ads, passing over countless 'ready-to-sail' piles of poo.
I have a 23ft boat bought recently for this price range and a couple of tips. Makes sure the sails are good condition - check them for rips and patches. Try and get as much instruments as possible e.g. plotter and wind meter. Inboards are more reliable and better for steering IMO and finally if the cabin is in shoddy condition it might cost a lot to modernise - nothing is cheap with yachts.
Wow thank you friend. Just what I was looking for. Your commentary and sharing what you have learned to help others is a true gift., Thank you for all that you do! I spent years not subscribing to anything on RUclips, thanks for the inspiration I am now a fan and have subscribed.
When looking at older sailboats a prospective buyer should look at the length along the water line (LWL) rather than just the overall length...one of the boats show in the first 10 minutes of the video was a 26 ft boat but actually the water line length was only 20 feet, that will mean the cabin will be quite small....
This is a fantastic video. I'm someone with little money who would love to buy a boat. This is eye opening, cheaper isn't always the best deal. But it is sort of amazing that at the $5000 mark, you can still find something somewhat decent. It makes the dream feel attainable, which is exciting. As long as we keep the realistic mindset that work will always need to be done on it. And that's ok! That's boatlife!
“Well, that didn’t look like Michigan water” (14:05)…Michigan boaters are laughing at your inaccuracy. The water at Harbor Springs is amazingly clear and beautiful blue. Beyond that, I enjoyed your video.
That Pearson has been for sale for at least two years, so I bet they would take any reasonable offer on it, I'm pretty sure it was owned by three ladies who used it for racing and girls weekend get aways. They took pretty good care of it, and if you are going to have a boat with an outboard, the outboard well is the way to go.
Whenever I look on offer up there is a sailboat that was for sail when I bought Knot Enough in 2019 and it's still there... the owner never responded when I contacted him, so I tried again about a year later and got no response again. I guess they never just delete some posts.
This is so great. I really have the bug again now that my kids are grown (and having given my Laser to the Girl Scouts)! My Dad had a Spirit 22 that I could take out for 8 of the 20 odd years he had it. But I visited my best friend in Maine who took me out on his boat and was hooked again!
I paid $1000 for my 1984 Catalina 25. It was ready to sail. It was price to sail since the owner had to relocate for a new job. Exceptionally good condition for its age. If you buy a Catalina 25 inspect the keel bolts. I have been liking classic plastic boats lately if they have been refitted recently. I like Pearson and Cape Dory.
That renegade is solid! In the case of vintage the older 67-69 are built like tanks. They sail exceptionally well on all points of sail…. Really can’t say enough about them. One of my favorites. The well is considered an upgrade as most Atomic 4’s in this vintage have been repowered.😊
Wow those last two were great boats. New motor on the Cat but that CnC one owner was super dialed in. If the guy spent that much time on the add just imagine how many hours are put into the boat.
But keep in mind: the engine of the C&C27 is NOT a diesel, it's a atomic 4, 30hp gas engine. Very old, but smooth running engine, here well maintained, with a still good spare parts availability.
@Adventures in Paradise You should do more of these videos. In close to real time, so we can possibly actually take a look at some of these boats for sale. Do different prices ranges, but circle back to the 'cheap' ones, because that's where many of us are looking to start, lol. Look at how many views this got! Give an overall analysis of the boats with your eyes. I'd watch that every day, lol.
Jason, Getting back into sailing after many years away. I checked other comments and did not see any discussing the cost of transport/relocation. For example the $5000 boat in Michigan can literally double in price and then some if it’s new owner lives in South Carolina. I will be using the boat on a large inland lake but one with almost no sailboat services. One must consider mast stepping at both ends of the trip. Does the seller’s location have a gin pole? How about the delivery end? You may need to rent a crane. Big boats ( anything over an 8’ beam ) require proper transport equipment and often permits. I have not bought my “new” boat yet but learned quickly that my search area was going to be very limited. I saw a nice older boat only 100 miles from me but it would double in price just to bring it “home”. Just pointing out an additional consideration.
Good Point, thanks for adding that. Living here in Florida, it's just "how long will it take to sail home". It took two days for both our sailboats, but neither one had a trailer, both in the water.
@@AdventuresInParadise Having lived on the east coast most of my life I initially had not taken transportation into consideration. I now do… Depends on circumstances of course but I live in Upstate South Carolina and want to keep the boat on Lake Hartwell. Creates a whole ‘nother category of concerns and limitations. Patience really does become a virtue! Love your videos. Been a real help😎👍
@@artsmith103 Thank you Art. A trailer sailer would have been ideal but I was looking for something larger. The problem solved itself however. My Wife is not a sailor and a compromise was struck. We bought a small Cabin Cruiser instead.
After having had larger boats, living about a 15ton, I've had two B24's -- one thing not mentioned was they have 6'+/- headroom. Also, they aren't remotely as slow as rumored (however not exceptional going to windward...). My last time coming up the Bay, my GPS logged 8kts tops and an average of just under 6kts (20+ hour trip, solo sailing), so they move nicely if some attention is paid to trim... think of `em as a poor-man's Flicka on steroids.
cheap does not necessarily mean bad. could be someone who needs to get rid of it fast for financial reasons for example... but that also probably means they have not been keeping up with the maintence. also. the older boats from the 70s are sometimes safer because they are heavier/slower etc. can handle a little bit of weather with enough reefing in a heavy boat, more than a newer lighter boat.
The 27cc for 4700$ was located in Harbor Springs Michigan. So it's a fresh water boat which are almost aways better than say salt water Flordia. Are saltwater heat exchangers different than freshwater? Also if I took this boat to salt water do you think it would cause any additional problems? It's just the boats in Michigan or around the great lakes are so much nicer and their is less of a demand!! Thanks so much great video again!!
Nice video... but none of the boats you looked at were really equal... depends what you are trying to do in sailing.... racing?, weekend glamping? , cruising?... I like to go by hull speed and comfort ratio. and I would bet every single one is going to need new standing rigging... when insuring a boat if the rigging is over ten years old, they will make you replace it . Location is also one of the most important, unless you are going to sail your 3000 boat 800 miles right off the bat...
I'm thinking about getting a sailboat and I want a good deal, I don't know that much about sailboats so I'm going to get someone with a lot of experience to look at the boats with me, even if I have to pay them 👍.
If I’m in Alabama and decide to purchase one of these boats, where would I find a trailer for it? Would I need to figure an additional 3k or so just to get it here?
Hey Jason, enjoyed this episode once again. Did have a question though. I'm looking at a 1988 O'Day 302. Engine doesn't start but everything appears ok for now and just had a haul out a year ago but, wondered if you had any suggestions or recommendations since you have an O'Day. I'm looking at $4,000 range which is low enough to replace the engine if need be. Thanks!
I would get a trawler for the loop... great views out the windows and fits under bridges... no dealing with sails, no driving in the rain getting wet. And once you get there... more room inside. I'm not sure about which sailboat for the loop, but the motor would run a lot. There must be some loopers using sailboat on youtube somewhere.
That Cat looks pretty nice. So you started with a 22" Cat and then moved on quickly to the 28" Oday. For someone just starting to sail would you suggest starting with the smaller or larger boat? What does your better half say? Seems one you can learn but would grow out of quickly while the other would last you longer.
Susy did not like the Catalina 22, it was too small, and I agree. The O'day seems like the right size for the sailing we do. It is best to match the boat to your needs. I did like being able to sail on shallow water but dealing with the outboard motor and not really having a cabin to relax in... and the 28 is easier to sail. I would have been a lot less scared on the 28. The 22 would be perfect for a small lake. A 34 and up would be good for open water like ocean or Gulf of Mexico.
I started with a C22, and it was great to learn with as a 3-4 hour day sailor, and club racer. Easy to navigate around a marina. Incredibly well documented support on the internet when something goes wrong, and unless you buy a newer one, you’ll probably sell it for more than you bought it for. With that said, I did recently sell mine for a bigger boat (Ranger 26-2) and I’m already thinking about something in the 27-30 foot range. It just depends on how you’ll use it, and where. If you have a local sailing club, you should spend some time around there. Sailors love to take new people sailing, and they’ll chat your ear off on what they think the perfect boat is. Pro tip: find out which night is race night and show up at the docks, many will happily take on the extra crew.
There are so many boats for sale all over the world which causes most of these will never get sold coz the number of buyers is way smaller. Thats why many are in a bad condition rottening away in marinas. For sale with a little bit of work it says 😂😂😂
Hi Jason. I have just bought an dji mavric pro drone. I am planning to use it for areials during my video footage when i am crussing. Later in the year after my other finances settle down and start going forward I will looking at an lager yacht with servey. Thats when i will start my ytube channle up. I will have an new video csm as well by then. Gerard. Gerard.
Iwil be putting floats on mine. um I would be carfule with some of the photos. Why are some of the photos narrow and blurred eges ?. I like to look at large clear full frame photos because people are going to see the boat before they buy Gerard.
I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT SAILBOATS BUT I KNOW THAT I WANT ONE!!! $3000. OR UNDER. I LIVE NEAR LAKE ERIE IN OHIO. WHAT SHOULD I DO AND STUDY B4 SAILING?? I WATCH TONS OF VIDEOS ON SAILING .BUT KNOW ABSOLUTELY NOTHING?? POINTERS??? THX FRANK TOLEDO OHIO
I have to say that I'm really glad that sailing is not so popular, since it allows some of these deals to come up. I grew up in the keys and have always loved sailing, but never was in a place in my life I could get back into it. Now that I'm finally starting to look into it again I am relieved to see it is actually possible without breaking the bank.
I got a 28.5 hunter running and new sails for 2500 motor is a yanmar diesel. Its got a bathroom, and 2 beds could sleep a few people and carry some stuff. Im trading it for something else soon. But deals are out there. Its insane what kind of sailboat you can get for 10,000 and under.

Have 7g total in my chrysler 26 with trailer..
Makes a great coastal cruiser and recently crossed lake superior with it
You look through BoatTrader with the same mindset I do. Your summary at the end of each boat was great! Thanks for another great episode!
Thanks!
I had an identical 1974-27ft C&C. That was one beautiful, tough boat.

Last year I bought a Hobie cat for $400, taught myself to sail and sold it for $2000. Looking at a Catalina 22 next. The Tanzer 22 looks nice also.
Don't know if you watch Sam Holmes or not, but he just got a cat for $300 and his next videos will be a week-long, 100mile trip in the keys.
@@AdventuresInParadise I haven’t gotten around to it yet. I absolutely love your videos. If you’re ever in Fort Lauderdale drinks are in order 👍🏽
I got a completely renovated Bristol 28 with a relatively new 8hp Honda for FREE from a marina in Stamford, Connecticut!
ill give you 1500 bucks
It somehow didn't mind that you set the filter to search for boats constructed between the years 3,000 and 5,000 A.D instead of price 😂
My 1st boat was a 77 Catalina 28, it didn't have a motor but it was clean, got it for 1,500$ I miss that boat.
I bought a cheap 21 foot last fall . Let the work begin . Hope to sail her after getting it ready.

I've been thinking about doing this again, so okay, I will! Thanks!
C&C 27 and the Catalina 25 have the exact same LWL, and S#. So performance wise they'll be similar.
There are clear waters in Michigan. The Torch River looks like the Bahamas thanks to evasive muscles.

I love this series!!! Lots of great insights. Thanks!!!
But that’s not a diesel at 14:45. States the fuel is gasoline on two separate sections.

what be a good boat for first time sailing? a liveaborad version so i can do the loop, icw and work way towards bimini once i gain more experience.
