What do you want to know? There's not a lot of info out there, but it's there.
The MarkII moved the
mast, added double spreaders and added a sprit to reduce
weather helm. 50% of the MarkI boats have this anyway since they took so long to build at home.
MarkII has a slightly larger
cockpit. No matter whether MarkI or MarkII the
cockpit IS small and hard to move around, don't plan on a lot of entertaining. The coamings are high, winches make entry harder; add on a frame for a
bimini and cruising "stuff" and it is a spider web. That said, everything then is close so easy to
single hand.
The PH windows aren't as big inside as they look outside. Not like a Niagara-Nautic 36 PH. Comparing the two as well, typically you stand at the
helm and don't have the nifty seat, or does your companion. Not an efficient use of the PH.
Galleys are generally well laid out (remember, most of these boats are custom), and setee typical. Heads are small with no
shower.
Get the
cutter rig.
The
deck is immense. You don't have to worry about what size dingy you're going to cabin-top.
Built like a brick shiphouse. You can run over a small powerboat and keep going. Heavy, but surprisingly manouverable.
I prefer a shaft over sail drive.
Look at photos carefully- you can see some bad stuff- junk construction, etc. One in
Ontario CA has some sort of silicon-like goo all over the
deck ahead of the PH, looks like they used it for crack filler- why would it be cracked?
Had my heart set on Santy Anna in QC, though one in Kingston ON just came on the market and she looks beautiful. So my buddy sailed down with his Corbin to show to my wife, and she ruled out the Corbin fast due to the difficult and small cockpit, ineffective use of the PH, and small
head. She's right. So Corbin of off the list, but I still like to look at the photos on YW...they have beautiful lines.
