Just bought a Laguna 24, it’s pretty old and needs a lot of work, was wondering if you have any tips. It’s our first sailboat. So much like you it’ll be our try it out/ camper on the water. Pros and cons you’ve had with it?
@daysailor_c343 ай бұрын
I grew up sailing 12' to 16' dinghies but this was my 1st 'real' sailboat, lol. The boat was fun on the water and sailed well. We slept on it but it was kind of like tent camping so we decided to go bigger for more room and amenities after 2 seasons. We then had the Pearson 28 for 2 seasons and now sail a Catalina 34 which seems to be the perfect boat for us. The boat pretty much had all the things typical to older boats - some leaky port lights, tired wood work, older and limited electronics. It's a solid boat, just needs some TLC and cleaning up. Have fun with it!

@daysailor_c347 ай бұрын
None at all, just the opposite. I went from a sporty Pearson 28 that was a blast to sail, and I thought I was going to have to give up some of that fun moving to the bigger, heavier C34. The boat handles well and is fun to sail. The extra length and weight are definitely nice to have in heavier weather. The boat is not going to win any races but gets along pretty well.

I haven't heard of anyone that has some recent video of you. One of the guys that sails in our group takes awesome drone footage. It's pretty late in the season but if you think of it next year contact me and I can put you in touch with him. The footage this year was with a new drone, better quality. This is some of his work. kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z2O5Y3mZlrWobM0 kzbin.info/www/bejne/r4PElayFd8x_sJI

@daysailor_c34 Жыл бұрын
We have owned the boat since last June and love it - no special problems I can think of, just items typical of any 30+ year old boat. I would join the Catalina 34 Sailboat Enthusiasts Facebook group if you haven't already. You can search for any concerns you might have there. Our boat only had the CNG cooktop, not stove, but the previous owner had already ripped out all the old lines since it's hard to get around here too. I made a compartment for a single buner butane cooktop that we store in that space, that and the microwave is really all we need with how we use the boat.
