I might decide to sell my 1981
S2 8.5 m sailboat and buy a 33' Morgan OI with 50 hp diesel instead of
building a bigger sailboat.

It would be a lot better suited to cruising the Bahamas although not
as much fun to sail. *There are tons of older sailboats on the market

also.

I'd like to go further than the Bahamas and my 28' is a tad small for
that. The 33' OI is twice the weight, nearly the same draft and is
well made. 33' is about the largest I'd like to singlehand.
