Re: Does My Boat Qualify???

Hi All,

My wife and I just made an offer on a 1979 CS36 (Canadian Sailcraft) and I''m wondering if I can now qualify as owning a plastic classic or is a CS36 still to radical and new? We have a P&S on our 2005 Catalina and will be using half the proceeds from that sale for a college account and the other half for the new to us CS36. We have to be responsible at some point and this is an easy way for us to get ahead of what will most likely be 250k for college by the time our daughter gets there in 18 years.

After looking at lots of "quality" boats I really came to appreciate the build quality of the CS's and I look forward to having an older boat to putter on again..

My boat was built is a fin-keeled, spade-ruddered racer/cruiser built in 1980 down in Texas and "they" haven't kicked me out of this place (yet)! ;-)
