Had you considered a Nonsuch? No jib, easy rig to handle, decent
performance, very roomy for the length, nice workmanship.
Nonsuch are awesome boats, but I wouldn't trust the cat rig on the open ocean in
changeable weather. I'd worry about the ease of reefing that huge single sail,
and balance under reduced sail. There's more to sail handling than tacking!
The 26 might be a great singlehander, but the bigger ones might be a handful.
