If I just wanted to sail, I'd get me one of those Farrier Corsairs.
Trimaran. They fly.

I sailed on a 24' a few years ago... very nice. There are several 31s for
sale out here. They seem to hold their value well...


I was reading a sailnet post from a 31' aft-cabin owner who does
coastal cruising with his wife.
He doesn't weigh it down, but does have an Engel reefer.
Certainly a "different" type of cruising in that your trip plans
are quite different when you move 10-20 knots hour after hour
I like that idea.
Wayne posted an animation of an F-27 race down in Florida
some time ago. That got me interested in them.
Amazing how fast they move.
Not as fast as some of those crazy Frenchmen on those high tech
cats/tris, but plenty fast.
