Inches away from an O\'Day 25.... any thoughts please?

A Strange thing happened the other day....I Went out for a pint of milk and came back with an O'Day 25 (liftng keel) instead...How Did that Happen ?
Are there any O'Day learned peeps who would like to share a bit of knowlege with me?

I guess you dont like these boats then, why is that?

One has to start somewhere, If I waited until I could afford the boat I really wanted I would need to re upholster my armchair, that's unacceptable! I want to 'participate not spectate.

Go for it! Though I don't this type of boat, I know how you feel. Bought my first boat, a wooden classic dinghy, this spring after only a little more than one day of consideration - and I do not regret it for a moment!

Thanks for encouragement /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif You can come to boat warming party cgull is not invited...lols
My spontaneous decision could only be made after deliberation and viewing types of boats that would be suitable for the sort of sailing I want to do and the O'Day is a good compromise. I have not parted with all my money yet, she gets surveyed next week.
Being an old newbie my (First) post (perhaps) should have been more specific but, I was hoping there may be some O'Day owners lurking about somewhere here.

Very usefull, thank you and yes she will get all her important bits checked next week.

The ideal boat is not necessarily your dream boat - rather she is the one that happens to turn up at the right time, at the right price, and in the right circumstances, and it sounds like this O'Day is a strong contender here.
Follow your heart Marini, but carry out a thorough survey first, and then see where she takes you...... A Donf!
