I agree with Evan's view of John Neal's site. I also agree with John Vigor's
"20 Small Sailboats To Take You Anywhere" (boats 20 feet to 33 feet, all of
which have made long ocean passages, the only clinker in the group being a
Catalina 27, included simply because one had circumnavigated).

John Neal's site (expedition sailing adventures) has a very good list of
boats that he considers suitable for offshore trips. I tend to agree with
most of his choices and comments.
