This one i should have bought

Here is a 1982 Cape Dory 25 that i looked at a month ago. i should have bought it, but my wife talked me out of it. the guy was asking $6000 which was a really good price. now i am bummed...

i have been sailing since i was 11, and have owned boats since around then. my first was a Cape Dory 10 that floated into our lake place. i named it Lumpy, tho' it has very nice lines and is the most elegant 10' boat i have ever seen. i am going to try to restore it a bit this year.

I have dreamt of blue water sailing ever since my mother bought me the book "Dove" when i was about 9. I sail mostly on Candlewood Lake in CT

i also have a Lark which is an English one-design that looks like this:
