there have it folks, another owner of a flyweight baysailor proclaiming to one
and all that space, space, space and more space defines a boat's capability to
sail.

btw dougies, wanna tell us how much more space a Hunter 19 has compared to
a
Folkboat?

Actually, the H-19 does have more room. Probably about the same stowage.
Here's a test... go aboard a Folkboat and invite two couples (average sized
adults) to sit in the salon and have hot drinks. If you can lean back, relax,
and
not have somebody elses elbows or knees jutting into you, then the room is at
least
comparable.

However, I've been in a Folkboat and I don't see this happening...


How about passage miles difference between the two?

I calculated a few years back that we'd sailed 960 miles in the Hunter, and
made a
rough figure that we'd trailered it 15,000. We've probably at least doubled
that
since.

But of course, by your definition Hunter 19s never cruise. Which of course
leaves
on wondering how you explain this
