They *are* nice boats.
We looked at one while boat shopping.
Ended up with the Mac. It fit our needs better at that time.

Small, expensive, and proven salty enough to cross oceans, this
hip-pocket
cruiser is best suited to couples who want a getaway vehicle
that's easy to
sail and laid out correctly down below.
LOA 27' 3
LWL 21' 5
Beam 8' 7
Draft 3' 10
Displacement 8,000 lbs.
Ballast 3,200 lbs.
Sail Area 358 sq. ft.

Now back on the production line at Pacific Seacraft after a
three-year
hiatus, the Dana 24 is a pricey, seaworthy, two-person cruiser.
She will
satisfy the criteria of a couple interested in owning a
moderate-displacement boat designed to sail in tough
conditions. Though
comfortable, her layout is seagoing-she's not a dockside
entertainment
center.



No wonder RB hates this boat!!!!!!



DESIGNED FOR SAILING!!!!

NOT A DOCKSIDE ENTERTAINMENT CENTER!!!!!

This is great!



Amen!



Don't forget PRICEY!!!!!!!

PRICEY!!!!!!!
