    Would you buy a boat that "rested on the bottom briefly?"

    Thanks for all the feedback. Going through the pictures again, it looks like there would be more projects than I would be comfortable with, not to mention the risk of more work uncovered in the process and down the road. Paying the yard to do the work would probably bring the cost up to, or...

    Would you buy a boat that "rested on the bottom briefly?"

    Getting Started and Insurance

    Recent threads have suggested that insurance is a problem, cost-wise and maybe otherwise, for people just getting started in boat ownership.
