Hello,
You may remember me, I'm the newbie who was asking about a trailerable
sailboat a few weeks ago. We decided to go with a small, trailerable boat in
the 15'-17' range, nothing too 'athletic' because we're old farts, and
preferably something with sides and seats because our old butts aren't made
for hanging off the edge of a racer. We're looking for a smallish boat
because it seems like it would be easier for old farts (and possibly senile,
old farts) to assemble at the ramp. And also something easy for old, senile
farts to learn to sail. By appearances alone, the 15' West Wight Potter
seems to have pretty much everything we require and maybe even room for a
portapotty for the Admiral. They also rate high in the "cute" factor, which
also appeals to the Admiral. Anyone here familiar with these boats? I
appreciate your opinions both pro and con. For reference we would be sailing
almost exclusively on inland lakes in Texas with maybe an occasional trip to
the coast once we get some experience and if the boat is capable of sailing
in protected bays.
Thanks in advance for your valued opinions.
