I agree...

But have you sailed a Valiant 40, or any discplacement boat of similar

And if it goes over, the 10,000-lb keel quickly pulls the boat to the
bottom of the ocean.

While there have been reports of Valiants being rolled, none have ever
gone to the bottom. Why you persist in claiming that the Mac is a
more seaworthy boat has to be the most absurd thing ever posted in
this group, and that is really saying something.


Where did I state that I thought the Mac is a more seaworthy boat than
the Valiant?
