Great video, thank you! I'm in a lesser-known Contessa 28 sailor - a great, tough, cheap little coastal cruiser! The She 36 I believe was one of the boats in the '79 Fastnet that rescued another crew. Very well-built old tubs! Thanks for posting and keep it up, mate!

Reminds me of when I was looking for a boat over 30 years ago. I looked at about 50, collected a lot of photos. What a great idea to do a video record of one's search. Great way to learn about many boats, thanks for sharing this with us. One becomes one's own "surveyor" this way. Sad to see boats in a neglected state like this, especially ones with so much potential. Beyond a certain age, one must be realistic about how much one can commit oneself to in the way of a "project".

Contessa has a fully skegged rudder which I like.

Think that's the right choice dude, looks like a lot of work. Beautiful shape though.

A nice boat, but it will be a money pit! Thanks for the video. How are you getting on with your boat?

I've found a folkboat but I haven't decided whether it's too small to take around the world... I just can't get over the cost of yachts on this country

What on earth are you talking about? There is no way on earth that this boat is a 'Contessa 32 killer'. How?

The she 31 had many characteristics similar to the contessa, if you read a bit about it, you might understand
