I think the new prices of the Inter 20 just put that boat out of reach for many of us, just like the new A cats. $20,000 is a lot of dough to sneak past the wife! Maybe after the kids leave...
You can get an A cat for much less than $20k
Used min weight - couple years old in great shape $10k - $15k
New XJ $16k -$17k (ok not much less, but less)
An over min weight A was for sale in Newport last year for $3k. That had a Hall mast that was worth $2k at least.
You could have lightened this boat up for the cost of new daggerboards, easy and cheap.
Look around, lots of A cats trading hands for lots less than $20k.
