If anyone is serious about buying a small sailboat, 12' - 16', there's a craigslist-small sailboat business in Mashpee, Massachusetts, on Cape Cod who right now has a pretty big selection of used sailboats for about $500-1500 each. Now is a good time to buy......prices are low winter prices.....prices will be going up on March 1.

He, Derek, has a number of ads in the Cape Cod craigslist. At least one of his ads says that prices will be going up by 40% in March?

Sometimes you find an older boat with a good hull, mast, centerboard, rudder-tiller, stays, pulley-fittings and the sail is old and worn pretty thin ..... so's you probably need to go buy a new sail and get to choose the new sail color-design.

Do not know if the Mass 6.25% sales tax applies to sailboats like this for use in New Hampshire?
