My friend I own a 27 Santana 1972 named El Gallo. It a solid sailboat with an inboard engine (2.60 Nanni/Kubota diesel). We've been sailing with it for the past 2 years on day and weekend trips. It got a lot of character and we like it, but we want to go on a longer trip and something bigger to be able to live aboard. Come with a main, a genoa, an outboard engine honda 15hp and A MARINA SLIP IN COWICHAN BAY WHO'S LIVE ABOARD FRIENDLY. It an old boat with some flaws, but sail smoothly. Needed a bit of work for its looks, but we are still sailing it every week. We are open to bringing you on a 1-2 hours sail to try it!
