I saw this today in CL: [url="http://seattle.craigslist.org/oly/boa/360404810.html"]'78 Catalina 25 Sailboat with '92 Easy Rider Trailer[/url]

I think this might be one of the boats I looked at last year. If anyone takes a look at it, see if it has wheel steering. If so, crawl underneath the pedestal & take a look at the installation. The one I looked at was scary, cables sawing through fiberglass, no washers on any of the bolts, no backing plates, you get the idea. The boat I looked at was also in Swantown (a nice marina BTW), and being sold by a broker in Olympia, don't recall the name of the broker. This looks like a broker's ad to me, and the story sounds familiar (I looked at nearly 3 dozen boats, a lot of them blurred together). For all I know this is a great boat, but caveat emptor!
