Hi there! I'm new to this wonderful community!

Hi everyone!

Just joined this forum that seems incredibly full of a lot of information!
Planning to buy a monohull probably in 2021/2022 for coastal cruising and some offshore passage with my family.

Lot of years without sailing now, but used to do it as a kid from dinghies to keelboat racing. I hope I can remember something

Thanks,
T.

There is definitely a tremendous amount of useful information on this forum. The basic search function is not so good, but the Google Custom Search is much better. I have been using a tip from forum contributor Mike O'Reilly: go to your usual internet search tool, like Google or DuckDuckGo, and type something like "catalina 25 swing keel site: cruisersforum.com"
