I agree, fun is good.
Of course, there is some thrill in sailing a big boat although I find
more thrill in sailing a smaller boat. For me the thrill in the big
boat is the cruising aspect and not its sailing ability (although I do
appreciate how well she sails). I hope Rob enjoys his boat but he
mistakes his motivations for those of everybody else.



I agree that there can be a thrill in sailing a larger boat. - We spent
a week crusing off Galveston in a chartered 40-foot Valiant, and I was
very impressed with its handling and response.
