The only way I see this working is selling the lead for scrap.

There have been several showing up on Craigslist for months. If you already own a 25, you own the better boat..

My inquiries led the management to look into the status of the boat and owners, if any. Turns out it belongs to the marina and they are willing to take offers on it and 'don't worry about insulting offers', which I interpret it to mean, we would like it to go. My offer is leaning to pay for the mast step and haul out to my 25 MKII trailer where I can transport it for long term renovation. The staff pumped out 18" of water on the cabin sole to provide some inspection opportunity. The most obvious problem is a drip from the blocks that lead aft to the cockpit. I'm concerned this region contains plywood sandwich construction. Even if it is only foam in the construction, and it is saturated, will it be possible to dry out without removing the fiberglass/gelcoat cabin top. Both instances are rough with the former being very serious. She has been in the water for many years, so it occurs to me she will have a blistering hull. I would be in no hurry to get her renovated. No sails, running rigging shot, even water dripping from the chain plates inside the cabin. Gosh, I'm about to talk myself out of this! Bill Dakin C&C 25 MKII S/V Tapestry
