Hi, all. I'm new here. I've been looking for a sailboat for a few months and came across this (see picture below) for sale online. It is about 30 minutes from my house so I plan on checking it out in the next couple of days. I've read a few of posts here on what to look for when buying a used boat or trying to restore. I *think* I know what to look for and *think* I could have this ready to go in the spring. I'm fairly handy and like the idea of working a project with my family.
I'd love to hear thoughts on what red flags/deal breakers to look for. I plan on giving the hull a thorough inspection and may even show up with a scale to get a good sense of its weight. It also looks like it is missing almost all the rigging hardware.
Thanks in advance for the help.
Seller is asking $100.
PS: I have a couple other pictures that I need to resize before posting, but they mainly show a couple different angles and the mast.
