This might be what I'd pick...

If the girls were included I'd buy one tomorrow.

I bet Joe, Doug, and katy will like this one.

Nice interior, layout, features...But it's an ugly hard chined hull.
I'd pass.

Thanks for the video.. I'm really, really glad the women weren't wearing
artificial PFDs. :-)

$395k

I think it is priced a little bit high. On the other hand
it is just about perfect and ready to go.

I can live with a hard chine.

It's Aluminum not steel also. What is your preference?

Aluminum.

The girls are pretty.

Jon, I know you prefer catamarrans in this price range. Still what
do you think of the boat?

I like the fact that it can be beached and the bottom cleaned
without diving, or for paint--like a catamaran. You could bring
along a sander and some extra bottom paint and keep the
hull clean anywhere warm that there was a tide.

Hauling up the centerboard means you could go more places.

I'd like to know how it sails in heavy weather.

One concern I have with centerboards is that they move and if
they move, there is going to be friction and wear.

If I stumble into an extra 500K this is the one i'd buy.

It's certainly not outrageously priced, but it is high.
