Default Watkins 27

Yesterday I was aboard a sailboat that may truly be worse than Scotty Potti's
Siedlemann. The Watkins was just terribly built, beamy beyond reason and a
sailing tugboat. I was helping someone calibrate a new set of instruments and
had to circle the boat a few times. We decided to raise sail. The poor boat
barely sailed upwind at all and was easily overpowered in the small gusts. Fit
and finish was terrible as well. Yuck!
