My wife and I are on a smaller
budget , but not poor ! We are researching sailboats for a
purchase down the road , several years in all likelihood! At this point in our
research, time and again the
Pearson 323/ 365/367 keeping giving us good reason to think seriously about them .
As newbies, with almost zero experience, although we have purchased a Tanzer 22 to learn on this summer . We started looking for
full keel , heavy , save our souls
boat in the beginning, lol. We however find this less the case , as we become more knowledgeable.
So one thing I wonder and would love to hear back on , form those who have real life experience. The 323/365/367 . What are theirs abilities to heave to ? When the sea gets the better of you , and you have chosen this tactic , how did the
boat fair , given that it is a fin
keel , with skeg , rather than a
full keel tank like the Westsail32 ,
Realize that you are real fans of these
boats , but would love some real life experiences regardless, thank you very much for those that take the time and effort to reply.
