In Response To: CM 26 (Greg)

The Clipper is a great beginner + boat. Major thing to look for is to make sure that the swing keel hasn't ever broke loose, swung down and crushed the false bilge. Research that here in the archives. I have a 23 twin keel so don't have the same boat, but in reading, that problem is not an isolated happening. CM's are not ocean boats, but you do get a lot of boat for the money and they'll take pretty good care of you in a snot. There were some posts a month or so ago with regard to measurements for a trailer. I'd think any tandem axle boat trailer could be adapted with bunks for the 26. What's a fair price? I really don't know - depends on the motor. The lack of trailer knocks the value -
