Tom,

 

While our answers would probably be correct, you probably should direct
your question to the Catalina 380 list.  Catalina 38s were not made in
the 1990's.

	Hello All,

	 

	Sorry if this is not following procedure but I'm a prospective
C38 owner and I had a question.  

	 

	I'm looking at buying a 1998 C38 which appears in good
condition, lightly used, but also has all original equipment.  Thus,
sails and rigging have not been replaced.

	 

	What is a 'reasonable' assumption to make to make in terms of
budgeting for somewhat major repairs or maintenance?  Hauling out and
bottom painting I figure I'll be doing no matter what.   For example,  I
have heard standing rigging should be replaced every 10 years.  I'm not
looking at cost or dollar amount from this group, just what items I
should expect to be spending dollars on.

	 

	Are there any reasonable assumptions I can make?

	 

	Any thoughts would be helpful.

	 

	Thanks

	Tom
