Am selling my Gulf 32 Pilothouse and am looking for a trailer boat just to

Have a dock mate who has one five slips down. He complains that the
boat operates best in a narrow wind window of 8-12 mph. Over 12 mph he
is reefing and says the boat becomes no fun. I guess tender would be an
accurate word. Or maybe to much sail.But reducing sail he says make the
boat handle poorly.

I sugested placing 500 pounds of sand ballast around the centerboard.
he did not like my suggestion.But then again hes a neat freak engineer.

My opinion? Looks llike a $uxury day sailor intended for a family on
the lake.
