How 'bout a Rawson 30' ?

Okay fellow cruisers, Sharon and I are continuing our search for a "new" boat, and we have found a nice little pilothouse sloop that appears to fill most of our wants. It's a 1979 Rawson R30. 6 tons, full keel, 5' draft. It's on everyboat.com. This would be replacing our recently sold Morgan 41OI for a trip down the west coast, WA to Baja-ha! Please give me your professional (or not) opinion on this Rawson, we appreciate you all!!!!

God bless! Bob

Looks like a pretty stout boat. I don't know them except by reputation. Pretty nice pocket cruiser. May get a little cramped OTH it will be a lot cheaper to maintain than the OI 41.
