Default Considering a Small Sail boat

I laughed at your "which one" comment! Smart arse! Okay your my new hero,
I'd love to have that many water worthy craft one day!

I like the look of the Pearl, it's a nice double sail. It's a nice "going
out for a day boat" from the looks of it. How heavy is it?


About 700# dry; another 300# or so of water ballast.

The ballast goes in after you launch it -- open the inspection ports at the top
of the tanks, then the plugs at the bottom. Replace when tanks are full. When
hauling it out, get the bow hooked up to the trailer winch, open the tank plugs,
and let them drain as you haul out. About 5 minutes each way.
