One reason why I'd be interested in a boat with positive flotation and

Great story, Doug. Fine adventure, well described.

FYI, the newer Hunters (like my little 36) do have a Kevlar layer from
stem to keel. (Typical Hunter penny-pinching. Why pay for a full layer
when most people sail the boat forward g.)
