Re: Looking for advice for first time BVI charter

Just did that a few years ago, with Sunsail in the BVI, (I mean BVIs), took out a 393 for a week. They did not require any "official" cert's other than a resume. I had (paid for) a Sunsail skipper go...

Re: Opinions about Endeavour 35 0r 33

So would you consider the quality of the E35 at the same level as early to mid 80's Pearsons and Cals?

Re: Hunter 54 - Thoughts?

I agree, there is good information here. Any boat that draws this much controversy for a specific purpose (offshore sailing) I would seriously reconsider that boat as an option. There are so many...

Re: Hunter 54 - Thoughts?

Seems like this could be a concern with any boat that has a keel attached via bolts. I know years ago I had a Catalina 25 Fin Keel, and when checking the torque on the bolts one snapped. Luckily I...

Re: Pearson Yachts

Interesting looking at Structural weights, as the O'Day 34 and the Catalina 34 both are the same as the Pearson 34, approx 7000lbs.

Re: Pearson Yachts

Yeah, agree on that. I was just somewhat perplexed by some of the previous comments on poor upwind performance with Ketch Rig, so get a Sloop instead (same hull) no big deal anyway, as I am not...

Re: Pearson Yachts

I am sorry, I stated cutter when I should of stated Ketch. So, earlier you stated regarding the P365, If I wanted better upwind performance I should get the P365 Sloop instead of the P365 Ketch. My...

Re: Pearson Yachts

This is what I was referring too.... why would the sloop have better upwind than the cutter on same hull???

Re: Pearson Yachts

With bottom configurations being equal between the 365 Ketch and the 365 Sloop, why would the sloop have better upwind performance? Seems the Ketch would have more combined sail area???

Re: Pearson Yachts

I've heard, and read up on the 365, but I am not really interested in a Ketch. I've read many "seaworthy" reports on the 365, but I don't see much of the same on the mid 80's (83-88) 34, 36 (non 365)...
