Input pls., which is the best of the 3 - Hunter, Catalina, Benateau?


Beneteau is the weakest of the three, though they are better sailing designs
than the Hunters. The Catalina has pretty good quality and sailing ability with
very usable and bright interiors. A Catalina 34, 36 or the new 350 are hard to
beat for most coastal sailors not looking to spend on a more expensive Tartan
or Sabre type boat and not requiring the tank-like standards of a Caliber,
Pacific Seacraft or Island Packet.
