I've seen a photo of that same boat up on plane somewhere. It looks
even worse!

Here it is:

It looks like you'll fall out the back if you're not hanging on.

You're right...and it is surely an expensive boat.

I'd take it if they gave it to me. Then I'd sell it way below market
value. Pay off my daughters education, our house, and get a better tow
vehicle and still have oodles of cash left over!

And I thought you'd take your Sawzall and make three smaller boats out
of it. :)

Boat like that is good for just one thing. Insure heavily and scuttle.

The problem with 75 ft sail boats is that it takes a bunch of people
to sail them properly. Racing boats in that size range typically sail
with a crew of about 26 people. You can reduce that number
considerably with automated sail handling systems and power operated
winches but if any of that equipment becomes disabled, and eventually
it will, you still need a bunch of folks to take over and do it the
old fashioned way. We met a couple last year in he Caribbean who had
sailed around the world on a 35 foot sloop. They claimed it was the
ideal size because the sails were still small enough to be handled by
two people in any conditions.

i can believe that. i know some people who have a 35 ft'r (or close
enough) and it's handled well by a guy and his wife. 75? er.... i
could handle it fine sitting in the slip.
