Topic: Purchasing a Contessa

I'll be in San Diego next week to survey, and hopefully purchase, a 1984 Contessa 26 named Madelline Does anyone know of this boat's history, former names, former home ports?  Thanks

Re: Purchasing a Contessa

No specific knowledge, based on the information you've given so far. Any idea what hull number she is? I'm guessing somewhere in the 320-330s, given the year. With the hull number, we might be able to tell you more.

That said, the boats with hull numbers in the 300s are great. Slightly more headroom, and an anchor well in the bow.

Thanks Adrian; I'll definitely keep in touch and find out the hul #.
