I just purchased a 1973 O'Day sailer II. I need someone who can work on it as discovered many problems. I live in Dallas Tx.
The name(s) of a good sailboat repair person in my area would be most welcomed!!
What you need is someone who knows, to look at the boat before you bought it!
I agree, what ever it is you can learn to fix it. There is lots of help on this site and others sites as well and there is the YouTube route as well. The only thing standing in your way is you. If you learn to fix it yourself you will also learn what to look for in the next one. The skills you acquire today will payout through out your lifetime.
