And the favourite hair colour of the crew Only bikinis... I prefer them to be stored safely down in the cabins - just for protection against chafe, of course. And now we are a way off topic... And Big Brother is watching us... And rather the whole Big Band Of Big Brothers is watching us... |

This is not a wood vs fiberglass thread, but rather one discussing hull design and outfitting. Can the lighter duty production boats (coastal "racer/cruiser") be used effectively for water sailing">blue water sailing or would it be better to use a boat that had been specifically designed and outfitted for the purpose. The most important thing on a boat is safety...and even if two boats can both make ocean passages, one that is designed and outfitted for the purpose will make the journey safer and more comfortable...right tool for the right job.
