I bought this today for ~$800. Now that I own this chick-magnet, am I doomed to be poor forever?
Not my boat - picture of another Lido 14
By the way, I know JACK about sailing. I sailed an even smaller sailboat like 20 years ago at Boy Scout camp, and it was a friggin' blast! My buddy and I flipped it over about 6-7 times learning how to make it go, but we ultimately figured out how to get all round the lake, even moving upwind. I've wanted one ever since. I moved near a lake about a year ago, so I decided it was time. Saw one for sale locally this week. It came with two sets of sails and was advertised as fully functional.
Do we have a corner on ARFCOM for sailboat guys? What's the best sailboat forum outside of ARFCOM?
I want to work on some improvements to the boat over the winter, and I have a LOT of questions.
