Default Best Catalina design?

That was my feeling. You can't
one design race them, so that
leaves PHRF--which might be fun,
day sailing, and overnight
cruising--or if you are a hard
core sailor, extended cruising
--since it is weak on the inside
and cramped.

I'd love to try one out. And
the price is low because of the
competition. It would be a good
boat for having fun, without
breaking your wallet, and a bad
boat to impress the ladies. I
can hear them complaining. "But
there is nothing on the inside..."

The Capri 37 is pretty much a
big daysailor, but it would be
possible to use some amenities in
the cabin. It's a Grand Prix styled
boat but it's really not Grand Prix
fast... but watching them sail in
the Congressional Cup and some of
the other events that use them,
they look like a lot of fun to sail.
