A trawler with a steadying sail doth not a "sailboat" make....unless
your destination was downwind, and good fresh gale was blowing, I don't
think that boat could "sail" anywhere....

good luck in any event.....

No I don't think the Fales Carib is a sailing vessel. :o)
Thanks for the worry though.
I understand the steadying sail concept on trawlers and that they
really aren't for propulsion.
