That maybe the Dunc 37 that I gutted out but someone else fitted it out (or attempted) too , lovely boat the Dunc 37! There is a Dunc 40 for 25k in my marina but again it's a project yacht.
Thanks all for your input and recommendations.
At the Eleventh Hour, one hour prior to flying out to respectively Melbourne and Brisbane, moneys were exchanged.
Busy 3 days, no time for play (you know...typical yacht buying scenario).
Looks like the boat sits on the mooring until July /august, gets towed up the vaguely notated Creek on navionics to Edge's Slip, hauled, pressure-washed, inspected, antifouled, new sounder transducer installed and motor seriously looked at. Then a week or two cruising the area before heading south slowly, picking weather windows.
It was a much different experience for me, purchasing/planning/ stressing vicariously. Has been healthy in reigniting my passion for messing around in boats.
Once again, thanks for your help people.
