Not needing a windlass, small sails, an inboard diesel, I can single hand her in 30kts plus with ease, and the list goes on.

I have to admit I keep eyeballing the Cape Dories. They are beautiful. I got a chance to sail on a 25 (not the D) and she was a very nice ride. There is a 28 in my boat yard as well and she is stunning.
