Hi All,
I've seen a 23D in Greece, that's on the hard (under a canvas cover). She's been sitting there for a few years on a trailer. According to the owner the engine has been removed and is in storage, condition unknown. Hull exterior seems to be in ok condition.

She's US flagged, has an MD plate and number and I could not find the hull number in the register linked in a separate section of this forum.

Owner has lost interest in sailing for personal reasons and the boatyard is owed some money (few years of dry docking and storage).

Sad to see her going to waste.

In order to assess if she's worth taking over and spending money on to rejuvenate her, I'm looking for owner experience type advice.
- Is she suitable for the Med / Greek islands and winds (strong N / NE in summer)? Like ability to close haul in seas?
- What specifically 23D related would you suggest looking at before deciding and negotiating with the boatyard and owner. She's been abandoned for a few years in sun and rain.
- What would you suggest changing, upgrading (intended use solo / couple).
- Other constructive comments and advice welcome.

Thanks in advance.
