That is one lovely boat! Just wish I could stretch her an extra 7 foot so that I could fit my partner and daughter on her.

In your opinion, is she capable of sailing the big pond?

[nmwarren]

While the Compac is a really great boat, I would never attempt to cross the Atlantic on such a small boat. Maybe it could be done, but it would not be very comfortable. The Compacs are seaworthy boats, they aren't built for crossing oceans - large cockpit, spade rudder, shoal draft, not enough storage or tankage, etc.

The great thing about the Bahamas is that the passages are short so you can wait for good weather windows. We had a rough first Gulf stream crossing and were always nervous when we saw thunderstorms, but other than that we had no major problems or scares and it was a great trip.

Sorry, not looking for trades right now, but I may be purchasing a larger boat somewhere down the line.
