I had a C&C 24 and it is a great boat. But you can get one for the price of the 
sails and the motor. I am not sure if $2k would buy a good one, but $4k-$5k for 
sure.

Yes, run as far as you can

C&C 24s in Southern Massachusetts and RI are listing from “free” to $2000.  
There have been several showing up on Craigslist for months.  If you already 
own a 25, you own the better boat..

I have had my eyes on a derelict 24 on our dock for months now.  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!
