Thom Stewart wrote: Doug, For what's it worth; "Easy to handle" It's a boat that is responsive to the Helm but not in need of constant helming, A boat that can go to windward without a lot of leeway and have a good turn of speed off the wind and down wind. A boat that will stand up to a stiff breeze but not be a slug in a light breeze and doesn't need constant sail changes. It should have decent balance on all points of sail but not be tender. Last but not least, it should be comfortable for the occupants, whether a day sailor or a cruiser. Forgot; It should have a decent, simple rigging system and sail plan. This is very subjective. Ole Thom THis all sounds like Lady Kate, but I'm sure she wasn't the boat any of you had in mind.... -- Flying Tadpole ------------------------- SquareBoats! http://www.ace.net.au/sbhome.htm http://music.download.com/timfatchen |
