I was reading a sailnet post from a 31' aft-cabin owner who does coastal cruising with his wife. He doesn't weigh it down, but does have an Engel reefer. Certainly a "different" type of cruising in that your trip plans are quite different when you move 10-20 knots hour after hour I like that idea. Wayne posted an animation of an F-27 race down in Florida some time ago. That got me interested in them. Amazing how fast they move. Not as fast as some of those crazy Frenchmen on those high tech cats/tris, but plenty fast. --Vic You mean like these guys? http://www.sailingscuttlebutt.com/media/07/0611 Regards, JR |
