There are two ways to go. One is for a downwind rocket
sled, and the other is the upwind god like an Aphrodite. I love going downwind fast, as do most people. Still you eventually have to turn around and go upwind. And since it takes 50% longer to sail upwind--more in waves, a boat that will sail to weather is a blessing, while one that cannot is a curse. An upwind boat will still do ok with a 'chute downwind. So what else is out there that rates a bit better, has a cabin and is trailerable? "DSK" wrote "Bart Senior" .@. scribbled thusly: I think you should decide what rating you want and then get the boat. How about -21? That'd be a sled, right? OK consider it done. Will you cash a check for me first? ![]() If I get a trailerable boat, it has to be ramp launchable but I can keep it in the sailing club lot around the corner and it stores itself. Having already gone the trailerable cruiser route, I'm getting interested in the prospect of a sportier trailerable. There are a lot of cool boats for sale out there, but unfortunately none seem to be near by. Fresh Breezes- Doug King |
