Does anyone know of any coastal cruising sailboats in the 30-35 foot
range with masts that can be easily lowered & raised? I've looked at
trailerable boats, particularly the Mac 26, but they are too small and
I don't need trailerability, just the ability to fit under low
bridges. This would be for cruising the US east coast.

There's no bridges in sailboat country offshore. You won't have to take
down a mast to get under anything!

If you're going to go down the ditch, a sailboat sucks! The ditch isn't
that deep any more for a 6' keel draggin' on the bottom. You need a
trawler....lots more room for the length of it, more storage, easier living
for everything without the sailing crap always in the way....
