1. Great episode, hopefully, I'll see you next week in Annapolis

2. Mike's Crab house North in Pasadena is closed for the season. Mike's Crab house in Edgewater (the main one) should still be open.

3. For European boats this is a common practice and most boats are designed to sit on the hard at low tide. Nothing wrong with this.

   As for the Catalina 30 keel stub repair, it is the reason for the smile on early 30's that used wood as a keel filler. Its a 4 day repair and super easy. I just did mine by digging the wood out and using Marine Coosa board and re-glassing back in. I cant comment on the 17k boat, but its not a hard fix other than time. If all you have is under 20k most boats are not looked after like a more expensive boat. For most it doesn't justify the care from owners, please also bear in mind that most boats that are this price are 40+years old and need some love and repairs. I been on newer Benny's and Jen's that have faired worse at 5 years old.

4. diesel fuel tank contamination from bilge water….huge operation to replace the fuel tanks. compression test on the engine. fresh water tank contamination, also requiring extraction and replacement, replumbing…..boat may never come back together again the right way…. agreed on undue moving parts, the more moving parts the greater failure points, no center boards for me… keel bolts are a crucial area. typos in the ad are red flags for me

5. I'd Walk on the 27' Island packet too, Florida is overrun with them like palmetto bugs!! You can't even pee off the side of your boat without hitting one!

6. Tim, I just listened to your comments about the Catalina 30. I have an 86 C34 which had a similar problem. The early boats had a plywood spacer between the hull and the bilge floor. In my case, water had leaked from a crack in the keel seam and up through a couple keel bolts. Some of the plywood showed rot in some test holes. We cut open the bilge floor, dug out the plywood and built up layers of fiberglass according to Catalina instructions. I imagine G10 could be used to speed the process. A dirty job but certainly doable. We also lowered the keel a few inches, cleaned the mating surfaces, new sealant and a couple layers of fiberglass over the keel seam and there have been no issues since.

7. Wow, Debbie Downer this week. I enjoy the buy this more than the don’t buy this videos.

8. You remind me so much of my uncle, may he rest in peace. I've always been into cars, and when I was 17, I was going to spend $1,700 on a '79 Camaro. Luckily, I asked him to give it a look-over and sure enough, the car had been in a major front end collision and all the steering components were literally jury rigged back together with wire! I could have easily lost control of the car and had a very serious accident! I learned so much about cars from him! At one point he had a close friend that was selling a '69 Camaro SS – in 95% grade A condition. The only thing it needed was paint and some engine work due to it having been sitting for almost 15 years. It was a bit pricey, but I had the money in cash ready to go. Unfortunately, someone else found out and bought it out from under me!! Today, that car would be worth in excess of 30 grand – at least, because it had the 396 engine and the two rows of square louvres over the carb and all the chrome was pristine! I could kick myself for not making the decision right there and then. My uncle had looked it over and said it was in amazingly well kept condition! I better get to what I was going to ask you or my head will explode!😡
   Tim, you had mentioned in one of your videos that a particular boat maker builds their hulls from thick fiberglass, then let's it sit for a month for curing/drying. Which company was that and which others build similarly stout hulls?? Thanks Tim!!

9. 200! Congrads.

10. Your daughter has beautiful eyes. Keep the content coming.

11. Bolted Keels are just too risky…. I would not touch a boat with a bolted keel.. Period

12. Probly not your boat but there is a Lady K here at the marina I am staying currently.

13. also problem with most sellers they think there boat is worth way more than they think because of the connection they made with her

14. What would be the difference in inspecting a cat vs a monohull?

15. I need to learn how to YouTube lol I have tons of experience I work and sail boats for a living

16. I was looking at island packet 27s as an option for a smaller boat but on paper the grampian 26 seems to be a superior option..they're cheaper, well built, standing head room and bluewater capable.

17. I am currently in the process of putting in a offer on a oceanis 393. Was curious on your thoughts on these? For a single person and potentially two people one day cruising in the Caribbean? Boat is in good condition but I was wondering if you have any thoughts on these?

18. Everyone I've ever talked to has praised Irwin's.Said they should be on my short list. The boat brand I've been told to avoid is O'Day.

19. Consult is not a good idea when you are thinking about something like a boat, Just think, A new buyer might not be able to explain a problem that might need an expert to physically look at right then and there and save you a bunch of headaches, So no, That's a thumbs down on the consult for me, I would feel 100% more confident if you were standing there side by side, You might see something that I didn't notice.

20. For a 130k I would buy a Hallberg Rassy or buy a 100k boat and do a 30k refit
