Thanks for the comment. I'm familiar with both the Flicka and Sam Morse's
lovely boat. They ARE a bit pricey, all right, and probably better suited
to blue water sailing than the Nordica. As a former owner of a Westsail 32,
I appreciate both the boats and their capacities, but I learned I was NOT a
blue water sailor. Hence the move to the Victory Tug, and hence my interest
now in the Nordica. It would be a perfect boat for what I like to do:
gunkhole the San Juan Islands under sail. Cheers,

Dick

In a similar vein are the Flicka and the 22' Falmouth Cutter. I was
aboard the Falmouth and it was an amazingly built craft. An guy no
longer young by any means had sailed it from Alaska to the Sea of
Cortes in Baja, Mex with no major problems. (other than the standard
discomfort of a boat that's too damn small). I think it was a $60k
boat though. But nice. I once saw one used in a far away land for
$25k. Have fun.

Yes, I think it was almost certainly a Nordica 20. I've visited the
site
you linked, and enjoyed learning more about the boats. Thanks a
million.

Glad to help. Lots of the Nordica 20's & Halman 20's from Ontario right
to the Atlantic Coast.
