Hello Webgang!

I am seriously contemplating selling my 1988 p-15 (after around 50 days
and over 20 glorious sails) and buying a p-19. What do you think? I love
the 15 but it does have some limits: limited space for passengers, head,
cooking, sleeping. there are benefits though: easy launch, rig,
docking/undocking, easy gunkholing....

I am sailing on an inland lake right now but we are contemplating a move
either to Everett Washington (on Puget Sound) or San Francisco.

I can't lose since I love my 15 but it'd be nice to hear from the gang
about the plusses/ minuses of the 19.

Also, what to look out for in purchasing a p-19. Are there 'bad' years?
certain ideosyncratic problems to check for?

And how about price? for a 1984 p 19? what seems good? this one the owner
is asking $4700.

I am grateful for an and all advice about making this move. And really I
am so excited I don't think I'll sleep until it's resolved!

Thanks gang!
