Sailors and prospective boat buyers will learn to evaluate boats in the 22- to 26-foot range, such as the Catalina, Hunter and MacGregor, and the equipment and accessories that will enable them to sail BIG on a small sailboat far more easily and for less money than you can "sail small" on a big sailboat. Throughout the book the emphasis is on careful planning and selection of boat and accessories to get the most enjoyment from the least investment.
The author of this book has the easy job of convincing you that a small sailboat is cheap and easy to maintain, especially if you can live with a secondhand boat. This book is a well-detailed training manual for boat buying...This book also contains a list of first-aid needs, a list of tool-kit needs, and instructions on caring for your trailer. (The Ensign)

Includes a chapter on buying used boats. (Cruising World)
