Is this it?LINDSEY Globemaster 39 Sailboat *New 2020 Boats for Sale & Yachts
Not a lot of info on the web.
Its a big boat, and no build date in the advert. Could be expensive to maintain and run. The claim of 17 knots speed seems suspect from looking at the pictures, more like 7 to 10 knots at a guess.I want to buy a cheap sailboat.
Just to add to my previous comments.I want to buy a cheap sailboat.
I have a Lindsey Globemaster 39. It does draw only 3 feet 5 inches. 12 foot beam. With the Jib up only it will do 7 knts. That post you saw for the overpriced awful boat is being sold by someone who knows nothing about it. The hull speed is purported to be 8.5 knots. I will tell you what it does with I put both sails up. My motor is a Ford Lehman. Your inquiry prompted me to join the forum. I have another boat that is for sale a Colombia 35 cc.. Very spacious. These boats are built with a lot of Fiberglass.. Not like modern boats.Its a big boat, and no build date in the advert. Could be expensive to maintain and run.

As a general comment there are lots of used boats available with low purchase price, but things wear out and go wrong with age and use. The more complex the boat's systems the more there is to go wrong. Repairs and replacements can be expensive, it all depends on what skills you have and how much work you can, or want, to do yourself.
Before buying a boat it is a good idea to have an inspection/ survey report by a specialist to identify possible faults or potential problems. This will be at your expense, but can be used to negotiate the price down if faults are found.
Hope you find a suitable boat.

My friend has a Gib'Sea 442 for sale in Florida Cheap. A french made boat. The company is now owned by Dufour. A great boat.Just to add to my previous comments.
In addition to the purchase price you will need an annual budget for running costs. Main items will probably be : somewhere to keep it - mooring /marina berth or similar; periodic cleaning of hull and re-coating bottom paint; insurance; annual maintenance of engine and other systems; fuel costs; etc. etc.
