Cheap boats...

Cheap boats are NEVER CHEAP!!

If you are on a "tight budget" stick to something other than boating.

Cheap boat?? There is no such thing.....

Be patient. I bought my boat at Lippincot Marina in Grasonville MD. There were several boats on the hardstand. Some of them had been there for years. For example, I recall a Morgan 41. Next to it was a very large unfinished home built ketch. The ketch may have been 50 feet and was built in fero, it that is your cup of tea. The asking price on the Morgan two years ago was $35K. You could likely have the ketch for nothing.
