Did you find your boat yet? If not, I suggest what we have been sailing on since 1994. A Hallberg Rassy 41 center cockpit. On the list of 1 out of 10 best built boats in the industry. If you are travelling with children you need to be able to tend to them and know that the boat will sail itself and it points on a dime. Not to mention all the options in sail plans with a ketch. Our is in Jax Fl. We are finishing our crusing in 1 year...husband has difficulty getting around now. Ortega Landin in Jax Florida. everyone know the boat She is load, liferaft, water maker, solar panels, wind generator, etc., etc. We will be letting her go for $115K next year. This summer we will be sailing her. If you let us know where you are we can swing her by. Kim
