Hi Bob, congrats on the good news. Was out on my slip neighbors 426 DS
on Sunday. He has a FULL cockpit enclosure. It was like sailing a
solarium. Absolutely no sensation of movement until we had to reef as
the wind picked up off of the Ambrose racon. Broad reached back into
the harbor at 10 kn. These boats do move and sail well.


Thanks, Marc. We're dropping Alien in in about 4 weeks or so. You're welcome
aboard any time.
I still prefer your boat to the Hunter, but I can certainly see the DS appeal.
Are you all set for the new season?
