RB
Not for nothing, but you could have headed-off the "you shouldn't be going" response(s) by originally mentioning that you know the difference between the pointy end and the other one. ;-) Karin Conover-Lewis s/v "Escapade" 1963 Rawson 30 Ketch "RB" wrote in message ... I just knew someone would say that "I shouldn't be going" blah blah blah. I know how to sail. I currently do not have a boat, but was hoping I would get some answers so I would be able to start thinking about what boat would do me the best (without making a mistake the first time) since I have been on land raising my family for a couple of decades... For the other folks that answered me- give me some time to read through the sites you sent me- if you can spare the time- please email me and maybe I can ask you some questions directly: Thanks, RB "Rosalie B." wrote in message ...

What should I look for in a boat? Rick in St Louis If you don't know what you need to look for, you shouldn't be going. Autopilot if there is only the two of you Autopilots can be installed or replaced. Wind vane steering would be better as there's less to go wrong with it. grandma Rosalie |
