we have one in inventory and I have had a chance to put her through her paces and find it a great boat to sail or motor. The interior is well done and well thought out. We are dealers for another very popular boat that would not recommend at all. But the Jeanneau is a boat I would own if I did not have a great cruiser already.

This sounds encouraging. I admit I have been very naughty. Was unable to sail her, and I bought the boat based on references and reviews, and what I could see in terms of the design, etc. I instantly liked her for her interior and I was hoping that with standard sails I would get reasonable performance from her.

Will let you know, thanks for your response.
