Re: Help With Possible Purchase

Everyone,

Thanks for all the good advice. I will call the seller tomorrow and try to set up an inspection for this weekend. I'll post an update once the inspection is completed.

Re: Help With Possible Purchase

Hey Jim,

Appreciate your info and enjoyed your videos. Definitely being cautious about purchasing this boat. If and when I buy a boat I aslo will be sailing out of Keesler. Goodluck living near the mother-in-law :) .

Rick,

Yes, when I asked asked about the "need for minor repairs" they told me about the crack and added the picture to the listing. Appreciate the advice about the earmuffs and battery charger.

Dave, thanks for your advice.

Help With Possible Purchase

Hello, there is a 2007 MacGregor 26 with a 50 HP outboard and trailer for sale in my area that I'm thinking of purchasing. The asking price is 14995. The bottom definitely needs a paint job and there is a crack on the deck. I'm not worried about the bottom requiring paint, but the crack concerns me....
