- This week, it's sailboat shopping season! We go shopping for sailboats for under $50,000 and see some boats like Pearson, Beneteau, Tayana from Robert Perry, and a Catamaran we don't really like. We look at common boat shopping mistakes and talk about what to look for in a sailboat - how to shop for a boat.

Enjoying all the content lately between both channels.
Thanks!
Ironic shirt comment, can't be free and equal at the same time! Choose one. Love your channel
thanks for watching!
Good Stuff as always , do more of these as Spring and Summer, Please remember to mention the economical ones if you find good ones. Im speaking of 20-30k boats over 30" that you find acceptable for first time sailors.
I could have watched another hour of that!
If your budget is $50K you should be looking at boats for $35 to $40K because there is always another 20 to 30% to survey, move the boat, fix this or that that needs fixing or upgrading.
That's great advice and that's sort of what I'm doing. My budget is 30k-35k so I'm looking at boats that are 25k and under. There's a C&C I've been watching for awhile which is just under 20k.
That has been my experience buying my Tartan 31. Got her for US$32.5K but with sales tax, survey fee, boatyard fees, refit costs, and all the miscellaneous gear to kit out the boat, the total came to over $45K on the vessel. My costs for the 2023 season, including dockage, haul-out and winter storage put the total cost to over $50K. So add another $20K to what you spend--if you pay $50K, plan on shelling out at least $70K.
@@thomas_dries Thomas, In 2016 I purchased a 1998 Catalina 28 mii for $28k. The reason is we desired a small pocket cruiser we could weekend on. My spouse insisted on a walk through transom and swim step, which the Catalina 28 has. These pocket cruisers have all the amenities of a larger cruiser, hot water, shower at the swim platform and in the wet head, propane stove and oven, etc... The Mii-s came with a 21 HP Universal that is very strong for this boat. Head room is about 6'2". The back double berth is tight, but oK for grand kids. V-berth is good for us old folks. Catalina built about 800 of these in two versions (mi and mii) and there are still many around for sale and sail! Not a large amount of storage, but enough for a few days of cruising. Nice thing about a Catalina is that the company is still around and parts can be sourced.
Hello Lady K!
My wife is getting out of being the vice principal in Ross River Yukon territory and she writes extremely well!
We have a Cantieri Navali scia50 witch we will be sailing from Holland Michigan to port elgin ontario ultimately to the Caribbean and beyond!
Hey sounds great! If she is interested in writing, please ask her to go to www.practical-sailor.com/apply - thanks!
Tim, I love the way you're keeping both channels the same style, they way you tell the stories of these boats and the way you explain things on PS is easy to follow, doing well my man
Wow, thanks!
Wow, the depth of sailing knowledge just gushes forth in your videos. It was a great ride. I almost felt like I was really sailing...and buying something. Well maybe someday. Thanks Tim! Marty
Glad you enjoyed it!
It would be interesting to see your take on the boats on offer on the UK site, Apollo Duck. Especially the prices compared to over in the US.
I called on that Pearson 36-2, The broker explained that the centerboard had been removed and glassed over... I didn't bother to go see it...
As always, Thank You!
This was a super fun update, thanks for sharing! Perhaps if time and in the mix, a seasonal update on a few other budget bins would be nice, desired by majority of the viewers (not just me:-) ). Thanks as always for all that you do!!!
Can we have an episode on how much things cost. What I mean is if I'm shopping for a boat I'll be comparing boats that may have different equipment, with thing in different states of repair.
If I'm planning on being short-handed, I'll want dinghy davits, windlass remote. One boat might have new sails, another sails that look like old saggy sheets that a shame old patched pillowcases. One might need new batteries, or be due an engine overhaul.
Without having at least a clue how much remediation work will cost, and how long it is likely to take, it is difficult to compare boats.
Thanks for another good video!
One silly question that might help get more people sailing, more easily:
What if a boat follows me home? What do I DO with it?!
OK, sail it. I got that part. But what about mooring?
Renting a slip at a marina doesn't fit for the bargain boat shopper.
Seems like Lady K has a slip at a lower-cost yacht club? I don't think we HAVE those in Maryland, USA-- yacht clubs are all expensive here.
Can I buy a huge anchor and a mooring ball and put it in somewhere out of the way of navigation but close to a public boat ramp, and access the boat by dinghy?
Or should I rent a mooring ball from a marina?
The classic mistake is to buy a cheap boat and then sink boatloads of money just keeping it; mooring costs can be huge, even before repair and maintenance costs on the boat itself. Can you help me avoid that mistake? Thanks, and keep up the good work!
Nice Job Tim , thanks for sharing vital knowledge in all your videos.One day I will get into sailing, and for the record YOU convinced me . Thank you.
You can do it!
I’d suggest looking at some of the more “fringe”, brands and designers. That’s where you’ll find the super deals. Because lots of folks don’t know much about non production boats, because there is less info to go on. I bought my old catamaran for a half of what an equal cat would have cost. My current monohull is a world class cruiser with 37 K miles. It cost under 40K. She turns heads wherever I go.
Market, boat, builder and designer knowledge give you the tools you need to get the best prices. It does not take years to inform yourself.
Hey Tim, shopping here, could you do a piece on what it takes, costs, to get a boat from the site of purchase home? Boat prices in California are nuts (always have been) and, you're right, boats of all kinds and price points are all over the place (and for some reason in Florida, Mass, and Texas mostly, at least the ones I'm looking for), but the "deal of lifetime" boat may not be in my 'backyard' and a purchase price would have to figure in a very long sail home or a ride on a semi-transport trailer across the U.S. Mega-thanks!
Another great vid.
Thanks
Glad you enjoyed it
The Catalina is by far the best one
Nice lines on the C&C. I want to sail to high latitudes but the full keel double enders don't excite me.
Cheers.
"Again, the owner used a potato to take pictures so..."?! LOL, I laughed for an hour on this remark and the picture :-D :-D
Glad you enjoyed it
New to coastal waters hopefully be sailing soon. That Prout is real close to me I tried to go take a look to see if those pictures didn't do it justice. Under contract! Thanks for the info just what I'm looking for!
Good luck!
That ‘84 C&C 41 is right in my backyard… St Pete born n raised. 🤙🏻 I’d be happy to go take a look at her if it would help out. Jest let me know.
Love the TShirt.
we just bought a beautiful newporter 40 hull #90 would love to see a video on them love all your other vids
Noted!
As soon as I read the title I thought of an 80’s Perry design! And when you mentioned Perry I KNEW you were going to say the Tayana 37 since that’s the stereotypical Bob Perry design and one of my dream boats. For right now I’m in the smaller cousin, the Baba 30, but it’s no less of an ocean crossing tank! Another boat I really like are the Gulfstar boats in the low 40’ range. Real solid boats under $50k
always with excellent information about sailboats, what if I have the idea of buying a kit/plans to build a roberts 345 FPP sailboat, do you think it is a good idea?
hi Tim I live down here in NZ and would love to hear your thoughts on sea safe mid 2000 Blue Water cruising boats suitable for passages between the pacific islands and NZ/AUS, wonderful channel i have learnt so much thank you :) and to all you're subscribers who share there knowledge with us folks
Great video! Please could do a video discussing double helm vs single helm? How much is it worth?
You talk about cruising the Bahamas a lot, is there any boat you’d cruise the Bahamas and then hop around to say Panama, then to Hawaii, or Japan, Australia, etc.? In this 50K range?
I imagine it’s hard work running two channels!
What do you think about the Moody 425s?
Have you discussed full skeg for prop protection on your channel? If so can you direct me to the video? Why dont manufacturers always include them?
Currently in the market at this price range
Catalina 320s are definitely high on my list,possibly a 380 if im lucky
Hope you find a 380!!!
Project boats like that Prout fro $40k are ridiculous... They should be paying ME to haul it away...
I'll take one nice Tayana 37 please skipper.
_Today's lighting seems a bit off Tim. Too much? I dunno.._
I am shopping in this range. Really have been for a few years. Timing has not been kind and I had to let a DE38 slip out of grasp waiting for some projects to complete and probate to resolve. One thing I have found a few times in the $35 to $55K range is "custom boats" . It seems these boats are small in numbers ranging from a dozen or so to just one. Due to this, there is little known about their performance and their reliability beyond some stereotypical assumptions about the design. What are your thought on custom boats of this nature?
How about a Moody 34 up to 36?
hey tim what happened to shaunas auberg? can we see pictures of its renovation?
Sadly it’s just sitting there in the hard 😭
What is the t shirt about and why did it have a halo? Love the content on all your channels, i am not out there yet but when i do i will be better informed for watching your content.
The shirt is whatever someone makes of it. I noticed the flare too... it was something with the camera lense. Not bad enough to re-record the whole thing LOL Hopefully it isn't too distracting
You should do a series of ambiguously worded t shirts, if that's what you are doing already, brilliant 👌🏻
Beau of the Fifth Column is a master of t-shirt to topic wearer.
Hello I'm in south east Asia and I'm interested in sailing, I really could use some connections around this part of the world.
For 50k Canadian we bought last year a beautiful 1994 hunter 33.5.
Bob Perry design, dry hull and deck,open transom full enclosure , solar panel, new sail and Yanmar engine, cap size ratio of 1.98.
I believe she should take us south safely in a few years.
And comfortable enough for me and my Girlfriend .
We are very happy.
Nice!
has that C&C been re-keeled?
It has had modification. Good catch!!!
C and C brought cored decks to sailing
Do you mean cored hulls? With the Landfall?
@@LadyKSailing Red Jacket a famous racing C&C from 1966 was the first cored hull. Generally most of their boats over 32 feet have cored hulls.
What about boats for sale in Ontario?
Watch Toronto closely as the weather gets warmer 😉
my boat is DUFOUR 2800
Would you specify that it’s US dollars in your title and comments
Hey Tim, just submitted 3 articles for your consideration…
Thanks!
🍻
I would not bother with yacht world for a boat under 50K. The brokers are a waste of time and will add 10-20% to the cost. Kijiji, Facebook and Craigslist will get you direct to the owner and to substantially better prices.
As broker I find your response almost hilarious. Brokers exist because people don't want to deal with the general public. No really. We don't add to the cost. The value is the value period. We also keep deals together that otherwise fail because of all kinds of weird things by either seller or buyer.
The extra value is a myth perpetuates constantly on the Internet. I'm all for owner's selling their own boats. But your perception is wrong.
@@jackwalby6257 my experience with brokerages have not been positive. In any case I wish you, your clients and your customers the best of luck.
Craigslist is full of scammers. As a buyer, your not paying the brokers fee- that just comes from the sellers cut
@@datamackit’s common to see very old decrepit boats on Craigslist. eBay is full of old and or donated boats as well. The best boats generally don’t often get listed there. Just my .02.
Man thats a hard no on any of those boats. Better, newer boats available around that price point.
Not everyone wants dual helms and sugar scoops.. there's alot of people who are interested in those older classic designs and features
People are so funny. I put on a t shirt today too.
I was looking at a 22’ O’day today. A total project boat from 1978. Even the $300 price tag couldn’t convince me.
I’ve seen that Prout😀
How is it? As bas as the pics?
@@LadyKSailing I haven’t seen it live and in person. It just shows up in my searches all the time. Too much work.
No equality till we're free
Nice shirt!
Thanks!
I don’t like the Tayana , I love the Bayfields and Gozzards
There is a Bayfield in Florida right now for sale!
Your content keeps getting better and better, and more engaging and enjoyable! I especially appreciate your impartiality and straightforward approach. I echo @BigDreamsBoating sentiments!
I appreciate that!
How about boat shopping above 250k because that’s the real price point to go long range cruising
Price point for who? Folks with that kind of budget exclusively.
You will end up spending at least an additional 50k just to get the boat seaworthy. So 100k and no water maker,solar,good ground tackle another 30k ok where are we. That’s if you like to work and have money, getting the point.
I believe you're describing the attitude of the contemporary upper middle class.
Who buys boats to go cruising without spending years on the hard for 50k. 200k is the starting price to buy and go cruising without years on the hard
Seriously? It can be accomplished for under 100k with some careful shopping and minor refitting imho.
Great video as always. Love the shirt. Ignore the manbabies.
Thank you!
Tayana ..too much wood upkeep
