The boat is a bit rough BUT comes with about 20 bags of sails, some of which have hardly (never?) been used (racing ones). Overall, it has a bunch of good stuff on it. It was neglected by elderly owners for a few years, but apparently has some serious results in the past. Gary CBMM Boat Don

Bring it on! We have over 100 boats up for auction, including some dinghies for those who want to learn to sail.. The 38 is the only C&C this year, but there is a very nice J-24 which will probably go too cheap. I bought a Grady White 20 a couple of years ago for less than the value of the trailer.

Agreed with Dennis. Be careful when you measure the old tank. Mine had the filler tube coming out of the tank on the top but then had a right angle in the filler tube which the filler hose fit over. I had a bear of a time finding a Moeller tank which fit, because they have the filler tube coming
