For me, before I had a clue about good old boats....

I made an offer on a sad and rather homely looking Tanzer 26!

A Tanzer 26 is a pretty good boat.

A 35' that retired from her 4th race when the bow threatened to
collapse and a 36' that retired from her second race when the pressure
of the backstay tore the top off the reverse transom so it looked a
lot like a whale with its mouth open and quite a few more :-)

See, if it had been a double ender, that wouldn't have happened. They are
inherently stronger, y'know!

Pretty fast underbody...but not a very attractive boat to my eye. I made an
offer of 6K and was rejected. A year later he sold her for 4.5K.
