Right, it really hurt me when you said my boat doesn't heel.

What
other faults did you find - too much ventilation?

According to you, when you want to have some sailing fun you go

sail a
dinghy. We all know that the PDQ 36 is something less than fun

to sail.
Folks who love to sail buy 35s5's, or even Express 30's, Jeff.

Nobody
equates "sporting fun" with sailing a PDQ 36. NO ONE. Not even

you.
When we go sailing with family, with friends or just the three

of us we
like to be on a boat that's fun, a boat that heels and can get

our
blood pumping. We don't want to be on a river raft. That's what

you
like and that's fine, but don't compare it to the very

different
activity of sailing a monohull. When we sailed on the PDQ 36,

my wife
couldn't even see the point of it. We might as well have been

on a
powerboat...a really slow one.



So, when you sail downwind do you place all crew on the rail to
induce heal?




People who love the shape of boats rarely love a monohull,

Jeff.


Huh?
