These would be worth a look if I was back in the market .
Hows the 150 turbo diesel in the 14ton Radford?
the radford seems overpriced for what its to me ...... steel condition ? one crappy main . no head sails , no head-sail furler , no winches ? dodgy internal fit-out .
but the engine may be very good ?
I do like the boat for some reason though , if that engine was good i think i could live with the fit out ......... headsails 10 k , furler 3k, re-rig 5k , winches 7500 k
nah not an option, find one already done !
The Holland 48. Alloy hull, built for speed and a real nice solid deck dodger. Crank her up and she will do 15 knots all day.
Tapizan is an absolute hooter of a yacht for $135,000.
A five way syndicate, $40,000 each = $200,000 which is enough to put a new rig on her ($15,000) to leave a cruising kitty of $50, 000 with which to sail her around the world on an adventure of a lifetime.
Any takers???

That's only the asking price Sands. My Adams 42 around the 100k mark already owes me just over 20k in just 9months. I think the Radford after spending 20 to 30k would be a great buy if you managed to screw the price down. Still dont understand why she needs a 150hp diesel Though.
and to find one already done for that price would be a give away and I would suspect the asking price would be then 145k.

The Holland 48 would be an amazing boat to sail.
Lovely boat but would need a fit young crew and probably several of them. Interior reminds me of my navy days!

That is exactly my thoughts hardly a good cruiser especially if short handed
