Interesting the statement about "no amateurs". That's exactly who is needed - from wikipedia - "The other, perhaps somewhat obsolescent usage, stems from the French form of the Latin root of the word meaning a "lover of". In this sense, retaining its French inflexion ("am-a-tEUR"), an amateur may be as competent as a paid professional, yet is motivated by a love or passion for the activity, like a connoisseur." Definitely sad to see the boat going downhill like that. But, I see a number of similar cases in the marina where I stay. TomT 1982 Cal 9.2 "Lenochka" San Mateo, CA "Robert G.

I don't know what the left-coast states do about registration of vessels, but here in Michigan our "MC" number is on the bow (unless it's a documented vessel) and I could get owner info from the state. Maybe you folks who pass by neglected good old boats ought to jot identifying numbers down, find out who's the last registered owner, and pass the info to somebody who has more enthusiasm for sailing and more time for fixing than money. I pass a boat, about a 24 footer (builder escapes me right now) each summer, hanging on the mooring, with a boottop stripe that hasn't been scrubbed in a decade, and a few shreds of blue tarp over the boom. Yet each fall she moves into the harbor where she's bubbled, and then in the spring she's back out on the mooring. I've never seen anybody sailing the boat, but somebody tends to the moves. Odd.

I find your comments interesting. A few years ago, when my boat was on the hard at the Gig Harbor marina, I saw a truck bring in another Cal 29. I was, of course compelled to introduced myself to the owner. He said that he walked docks for quite a while, and looked up owner information from the tax rolls, until he was able to buy his ³good old boat² for pennies on the dollar. He made offers to owners of good, but neglected, boats until someone accepted. An intriguing strategy, I thought.

That means that the neglected boats are all sitting on the hard, and in most instances they are costing their owners storage fees (or are already owned by the marina for unpaid fees). It provides some incentive to sell for folks who don't care much for their boats. Chris Campbell

Re: Cal 28 - $1200

John Caldwell2006-03-19 16:56
I've done this a couple of times. An old friend turned me on to the dock walking trick several years ago. He had picked up a sailboat years before, and he and I together ended up with a 42' Viking sport fisher for a couple of hundred bucks. I had almost picked up a 38' Catalina in good shape from the original owner for around $20k before my friend who got me out of power an into sail sold me my 2-29. Since he not only introduced me to sailing, but also to my wife, and since she and I had both sailed this boat with him, but never together, the 2-29 was the "perfect" boat for us. The way to play is to walk the docks, find a boat that needs some TLC but has the bottom regularly cleaned. The best time of year in SoCal is from November to April - at the end of the season and just before - when people are beginning, or in the middle, of paying slip fees for a boat that they don't use during months that they wouldn't want to use it anyway. A boat with a clean bottom and a neglacted topside, and with expired registration tags is a prime candidate. --- In Ca… [at] yahoogroups.com, Terrence Spencer <tspencer@...> wrote: > > I find your comments interesting.
