Hi all, just looking for some advice.
Next summer my grandad will be selling our cottage, but it will be to my dad's cousin (his nephew) who has a cottage 2 down, so we can still use it at a weekly cost (less then what he will rent it out for).
However, he will be selling his 1982 Doral privately. And me and my dad have talked and we both want it, so either 1 of us will buy it, or both buy it together or something along those lines.
I was just wondering what advice I could get as it will be my first boat, and I know my grandad will show me everything i need to know, just trying to get info on the older model dorals that could be things to look for.
I know the boat has ALWAYS been stored in a boathouse, and has never had to have any major repairs. So the engine is in good running order.
Thanks for any help
