In reality though, I like "Strider" so much that, if I won the lottery, I
probably would put her in a yard and have her redone soup to nuts and use
the balance of the cash for more extensive cruising and better meals and
side trips in port.


That's when you know a good boat chose you.

We got Xan to fulfill our expected cruising for 5 or so years. 15
seasons later, she still satisfies our 5-year expectations, and if we
decide not to go long-distance, she'll be just right at the end of our
retirement home's dock.
