How much experience do you have sailing fin keel mass
production racer-cruisers?

Sure do. As a broker I know not only transport sailboats, but am always
the pilot for sea trials. This season I sailed quite a few "new boats"
for me...
Cape Dory 22
Santana 30/30 (1st time I really sailed on with good wind...great
boat!)
Columbia 28 (Still available!)
Hunter 43 (just sold)
Catalina 250 WB
Beneteau 35CC (A pig)

Do you have any experience sailing boats that are NOT mass
produced fin keel racer-cruisers?


Depends on what you call mass produced. If you mean vessels where only
one or two hulls were produced, I've sailed very few. Do you consider a
RobinHood a mass produced boat? Does the fact that I sailed a Cape Dory
36 mean that I already sailed the boat? Hmmmm.
Why do you care about what I sail, Doug. I do sail and post pics
regularly. You are a powerboater with a trawler.

Every boat is different. Sailing a "sister ship" only gives one a fuzzy

picture of what another boat is like. Fine for general impressions, but
not
worth much instead of a sea trial.




BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! I've sailed 3 Pearson 30's, 3 35s5's, 2 J30's, 3
J24's and so on. They all had identical handling and performance with
small variations due to dirty bottoms and sails. Fuzzy picture? Oh,
OKAY!!! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHHA! Good lord!

Yulp, everyone should test transport a boat before buying
it.
