Thanks for that info
... I am buying a boat at this very moment
...it is as old as me (62) sailing boat and I have no mooring or licience
so I guess I best get to Maritime first up when I get to Sydney... I plan to sail it from Sydney to up here or Brisbane and beyond
... lots of rot, lots of work but I love it.. all I need is a parrot and a wooden leg
... seized motor
...but it has red sails
... I thank the economic colapse for sending this boat to market ... or at least the influence on the price... there are some really good buys out there now.
