Having just purchased a Potter 19 I am much terrorized by discussions I
find in my mail each day. I go out and check the boat for water, blisters,
trailer type etc. I sure would have liked to know some of this stuff when
I was looking for my potter (ie. look for blisters, trailer types, best
years to avoid or problems to anticipate). From the vast store of
accumulated wisdon I've had a glimpse of in the last month, I'm certain
some kind of guide or checklist could be made for those looking to but a
Potter. I realize this could be a touchy subject for some (i.e. finding
out the year Potter you want to sell is considered a lemon) the good a
checklist would do would be immense. Just a suggestion.

By the way, I haven't found any major problems with my boat yet. :)
