That looks like a great boat. I am not sure but the price will probably be a little high on Ebay, but also it could go cheap. But it looks like it has been really well taken care of so it should be okay. The 18 is a great boat and fast too.

I hope you mean 15 hundred! But yeah 1500 should be about right for all that. If the sails are in good shape then grab that thing and start sailing her.

I am no 18 expert so you might want to wait for a more experienced person before you decide. But I would say yeah!

By no way am i a pro I just started a 16' but it's not ours.I feel funny sailing it even tho the owner got it for free. If I kill it you know I would feel so bad. The messed up thing is that the guy that has the 16' will never use it we asked if he would sell it and he tells my dad no one day ill go out and sail it as it sat on the side of his house for 2 years... o well if i buy the 18 you know that guy will tell my dad ooo by the way I will sell you my 16... that would just be my luck ... and yes $1'500.00 for the 18'

The 18 will be a much more fun boat for you and your father. The 18 is a very serious racers boat. I guess the 16 is also but the 18 can beat alot of the boats out there.

The 18 is a faster yet more comfortable boat for two people. They are heavy though.
