Get yourself a real man's blue water cruiser - the WWP 14!

I see what you mean - not much cabin to hide in!
I'd like to do Omick's route: "One of the longest voyages was by David
Omick, a young sailor just 21 years old, who sailed his Potter from Seattle
to Ketchikan, Alaska. It took 90 days to work his way up the coast while
exploring hundreds of scenic inlets along the way. "
