I was wondering if any of you folks out in sailboat land
could help with some info and/or opinions.
I just feel in love this weekend, and I need some advice.
She's a SEAFARER 26, darkgreen, build in 1982. She has
everything a first time boat owner wants or need for enjoying
weekends away from it all. And the price is just about what
I can aford, ok so maybe just a little more.
The question is, does any one have a knowledge of this type
of vessel (good or bad). I am looking forward to your
answers.
thanks

Seafarer 26...designed by McCurdy & Rhodes. Produced by several
plants in the U.S., most came from NY. Back when I was the only
yacht broker that my wife trusted I sold several of them. They
were "price" boats but were built with a fairly high level of
structural quality. I don't recall any that flunked survey. Quite
basic below with somewhat plastic interior. Most were powered by
an inbd Yanmar dsl...some were outboard. What's the asking price?

Seems a little on the high side...I assume that it's inbd dsl powered
and for that price must have a ton of extras and a super sail
inventory. Still sounds high.

Our first sailboat was a Seafarer 26, and we loved it so much, that
we have since traded up to a Seafarer 30!. We looked at other boats,
but kept coming back to the Seafarer. The factory used to be located
in Huntington Long Island, but I believe that they are now in Mexico.
Good Luck!
