PS. Removing the weight of the big water tank in the V Berth allowed me
to carry full chain anchor rode. Very useful.
My poo tank is in the v-berth and we try to keep that one empty. I imagine
that fuel tankage becomes an issue when making the Galapagos to Marquesas
passage. But then, I'm basing that on things I've read on the internet ...
It just seems that if I'm going to pick a boat and spend a bunch of money
I think it's been on the market a while. It can't hurt to call the broker
and ask him straight out about the problems he knows about. Otherwise, go
down and look at it with a plastic hammer in hand and check it out. If the
hull has moisture in it, that's a big job to fix. if the deck has moisture
Good advice from Andy. Probably no hour meter on the motor. When looking
at the cost of replacing running rigging, remember it is probably twice the
cost of replacing the rigging on your boat. Also, 7 foot draft could be a
challenge in the Bahamas. If they bothered to buy Kevlar sails they

They need to come down on the price a bit…
Or you could go for something a little larger, from the same broker (!):
In the northeast, many buyers will shy away from boats with 7' draft (except
the die hard racers of course). That may be another factor on the asking price.

The CC 40 on YachtWorld looks gorgeous. If I base it on my experience
with mine and barring anything expensive like serious blister issues and
delaminations or extensive standing rigging work I would say that another
10 - 15K or so would likely get you a ship shape boat ready for off-shore
yeah the way I was looking at it was
25k purchase price
10k rigging
10k sails
15k motor
10k electronics, plumbing, etc
This assuming that hull and deck are sound. I own a moisture meter and when
shopping for my current boat used it to pre-qualify any boats before paying
for a survey. The 200

Despite a small 32 gallon fuel tank, I've never had a problem. I do
keep two jerry cans lashed amidships on each side. If I

Andy, I sat up and took note when you mentioned Sailing Saralane; I have been a
fan/follower of their site for a couple of years, since someone, (probably
you), recommended it here; I really like what they did to the stern and
especially the main saloon windows; I can discern that Skip is a
Skip is also a very experienced offshore sailor.
I like a lot of what he did on Saralane, but most I wouldn't bother with on
my boat. I like to windows the way they are, and cutting open the transom
and bridgedeck is more of a project than I want to tackle; it would take
too much out of my
While the 40 is a beautiful boat, I’m surprised at the small tankage. My LF38
came stock with 105 gals of water, 35 of fuel, and a 35 gal holding tank.
Nothing like the CSY44 (with 400 gals of water and 200 of fuel…), but much more
than most CC’s. Seems like you have to work pretty hard to
