Thanks Ozzie.
One has come up in my many daily searches. 5.5 hours from me.
The boat was known on here, and sold due to health decline unfortunately for the gentleman, and was fully renovated when sold.
The current owner has done what anyone does, sailed a lot and had great times, however the maintenance side is not something he's fussed on, which I can understand.
The condition of the boat is generally good from a video inspection, paint flaking in some areas, some scuffs here and there, and the gunwales have pulled away and held together just by tape at the moment as the owner is quite busy. Trailer seems pretty weathered but just passed rego inspection this month. I think maintenance was the main thing in both trailer and boat. Though interior looks tidy.
I don't have a lot of time for restoration, (but maintenance I quite enjoy) any thoughts on repair costs for the gunwales and touching up paint that has flaked through a layer?
I'd say easier to replace than repair, but I don't have the time and likely need a boat builder in Lakes area to sort out.
The boat was almost fully restored in 2015 I think, wish I could have picked it up then, but umming and rrring if I will end up wasting time waiting for trades to be available to make repairs. Weighing up waiting for a tidy edition ready to go verse tidying this one up.
Penny for your thoughts
