My humble sailboat would be an embarrassement by comparison to all the
beautiful boats here! (well, maybe I'd look ok next to the color blind guy).
Still, I will do my best to get a decent, (high res) shot of her to display.

Starwind 19 Review
LOA: 18ft 7in
LWL: 15ft 0in
Beam: 7ft 6in
Draft: K/CB board up/dn....1'6"/4'6"
Displacement: 1350 lbs
Ballast: 395 lbs
Sail Area: Main & Jib..153 ft2
Capsize Rating: 2.71
Sleeps: 2 adults, 2 children (4)
Designer: Jim Taylor
Number Built: 600
Year Introduced: 1982
Strengths: Factory deck plan is adequate with few modifications necessary.
handles 25 mph winds and choppy water surprisingly well. Very stable design
with big boat lines. GREAT boat to learn on before moving up. Large cockpit
for the size of boat (19').
Weaknesses:Not as fast as most some 18-20. Hull rating somewhere around 5.8
mph. Stern rail guard not necessary, but factory original main traveler uses
the rail guard as a simple traveler system.
Review Summary:Overall a very pleasant boat to sail and own if you are
limited to a trailerable style. Taylor's designs are superb (as now seen in
Precision sailboats) especially where maximizing available space in a small
boat is essential. Wellcraft is known for building brickhouses in boat
hulls. The Starwind 19 is a sturdy as she can be. The construction is
commendable.

Looks like a fine little boat!

RB

is ''brickhouse'' really a good adjective for a boat hull?

nice boat!
