Condition detail
Overall this O'day is in good condition for her age, the seller has owned it for 5 years and wants a larger sailboat. The engine is started monthly when not in use. Her decks are clean, with some thinning of the gelcoat on the nonskid. The engine runs well according to the seller. The wind indicator will need new parts at the top of the mast.
