Great boats! I used to race on one.


my first ride ever, on Lake St. Clair

Still, you should keep in mind that they are slugs in light wind,


light wind + Shark = beer swilling time, dockside or deckside
15kts+ = time to rock and roll baby

and
that the fixed keel makes them difficult to ramp launch.


such a minor inconvenience measured against the fun to ensue

They are great sailing fun, but they wouldn't be my first cruising
choice...


well granted, but the OP is looking for a _good_ trailerable boat
I'm focussing on the good part here
