Hi, I'm new to the group. I've been wanting to purchase one of these but I had 2 questions I was hoping you could provide insight on.
1. I've looked at 2 boats and both have had cracks in the fiberglass around the mast. Neither one was cracked on the bottom side, although one has a plate on the bottom that was bolted through and one didn't have anything underneath. Is this common to these boats? Is it a structural concern?
2. The one I'm considering looks like it's swing keel has seen better days from the one picture I was sent. It's not a great picture, but does it look like anything concerning?
Any other things to look for would be much appreciated!
Thanks,
Mitch
