Thanks, all for the feedback on the LF43. We have decided to pass on the boat recently listed on FB (Tarquin). The decision was based on a combination of price and some unexplained water damage on the starboard side that made me uncomfortable. Additional photos also showed too many owner additions that I'd need to remove or revert, such as a front opening Norcold fridge. Wire nuts used on some of the wiring also didn't help. If the boat was closer to us, it's possible that I could put some of these concerns to rest on my own, but I still feel it is overpriced at 50K compared with two others on YW, and the sellers are confident it will sell. But we came away liking the boat very much, so will keep it on our list as we carry on with our search. Thanks again. -- Shawn Wright shawngwri...@gmail.com S/V Callisto, 1974 C 35 https://www.facebook.com/SVCallisto Please show your appreciation for this list and the Photo Album site and help me pay the associated bills.

Only three LF43s that I know of for sale right now, 2 on YW, and one on FB. No idea how many were made, and I suspect any that have seen hull damage in the past 10-15 years were instantly written off (which of course is a concern for offshore...) We are also considering the Nelson-Marek designed Morgan 43/44/45, which seem to offer a lot of the same things as a LF43 with a solid hull, and are easier to find. Not as nice looking of course, and the interiors tend to be darker. Not sure about other issues on them. -- Shawn Wright shawngwri...@gmail.com S/V Callisto, 1974 C 35 https://www.facebook.com/SVCallisto On Mon, Mar 20, 2023 at 8:22 AM Della Barba, Joe via CnC-List < cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrote: > Sure – that was not meant to mean the boats have a problem or are bad in > any way. > > If people like them, they’ll keep them! > > If you want a Catalina 40, there are tons of them to look at.

Sure – that was not meant to mean the boats have a problem or are bad in any way. If people like them, they’ll keep them! If you want a Catalina 40, there are tons of them to look at. That makes shopping easy. That doesn’t mean the boats are good, but they aren’t hard to find. There are probably what – 4 or so LF 43s for sale on the entire planet?
