| LOL, Donal. Are you sailing? We're really having a blast on the 35s5.

Good job on the website. I don't particularly care for those window shades
but the rest of the interior looks pretty nice. At the Miami Boat show last
year I talked to a fellow who custom made wooden blinds for yacht windows.
They would look great in the interior of your Beneteau. You have a choice
of woods or plastics. I would choose wood and match it to your interior
finish. They were a bit pricey but a man of your means knows quality is
generally worth the price.

But, looking at the specs reveals a somewhat skimpy ballast to displacement ratio.
Do you find the yacht to be a bit tender or does the beamy hull form stand up
to a gust pretty well/
