What did you buy instead of the H27?

The H25 and C27 seemed to be the most popular boats back in the '90s. There
was a ****load of them for sale.

Scotty, there were/are other issues with the H-27 of that era, so I got
lucky
by finding out early and not wasting my time.

To this day, I have not heard an owner or former owner of an H-27 of that
era
make mention the boat was decent when the winds piped up. Most bitched
that
the engine was too small to power them back home against the wind.

I would have felt it was a reflection more on the owners ability, rather
than the boats.
BTW, I've sailed into docks many times and talked to 'sailors' who were
waiting for the wind to 'calm down a bit'.

he, who had owned the boat for some time, felt doing so under those
conditions
was unsafe. I accepted his judgement.

What does that have to do with the boat? there are C&C owners who
won't
sail more than 5 miles from their slip, that doesn't mean the boat is
bad.

I looked at a early 80's Hunter 27

I looked at one once a long time ago, but dropped the idea when I
learned
the
owner wouldn't sail the boat in 20 knots.

A "Sunfish" of about the era as yours and a tad longer.

I never owned a Sunfish.

Somehow I see you on one of those Kool Cigarettes styrofoam boats (for
those that have long memories).
