Default Beneteau - a sailor/reviewer's thoughts

Spent a week on this Moody 38 CC. Thought it was a pig to weather, would
have to try one without the inmast furling to properly evaluate it. That
being said, the aft cabin was pretty nice, a real aft cabin AND it had a
pilot berth between the aft cabin and main salon.

Moody gets most things right IMHO, but even a CC with good
sailing performance still doesn't feel the same. For one
thing, you're too far removed from the rudder & too high up.
Maybe it just feels that way to me from having spent so much
time on racing dinghies. There's a Moody 33 or 34 CC in our
marina that's a nice looking boat, seems to have at least
average sailing performance for a racer-cruiser.

Now I wonder why Bobsprit didn't mention the Moody series?
Or the Sirena which is actually pretty & fast? I wonder why
some people never have any trouble figuring out who the real
sailors in this bunch are...
