Jessica is sailing an S&S34 which is a solid well proven design. I had one for 14 years and they are superb seaboats and very strongly built with much less to go wrong. Abby will spend so much time tweaking her boat and its rig that she will have no time to blog... |

She'll end up dismasted or capsized or something. Jessica has the better idea. Wilbur Hubbard |

I agree that it may be a bit high strung for a solo teen, but if I were going to run downwind around non stop solo ...I'd prefer an open 40 over just about anything. Jessica is sailing an S&S34 which is a solid well proven design. *I had one for 14 years and they are superb seaboats and very strongly built with much less to go wrong. I'm aware of her boat, and you are correct the S&S34 is a nice strong boat..but if that's the goal then why not a West Sail 32 or PS 31? *Abby will spend so much time tweaking her boat and its rig that she will have no time to blog... Thats OK, she needs to keep her head on a swivel, and her attention on the boat. Joe |
