Re: Small Sailboats - Trailering

Later model 23 O'Days have much more civilized cabins than the 22 Catalina. Very easy to spend a weekend on, and are still trailerable. If you go larger you can still trailer many 27's but stepping...

Re: Tohatsu 8 hp long shaft

Electric start? Alternator? Or is it a straight pull start only with no alternator?

Re: O'Day 23 Bluewater Sailable ?

Having owned and sailed the O'Day 23 for years it is a perfectly fine boat to sail up the coast from Florida to Maine if desired. I wouldn't go deep blue but staying within 5 miles of shore is a non...

Re: Pro/Con of outboard for blue water cruising

Sounds accurate
I have the 8HP 4 stroke Tohatsu on my 23 Oday. I came up with 4 hours per gallon at 5kts. This is just barely above idle and matches your 20 mile finding

Re: Pro/Con of outboard for blue water cruising

My 8HP 4 stroke uses about 1 gallon every 4 hours pushing my 23 Oday along at 5kts.

My 23 Oday has an 8.9HP 4 stroke that sips gas and has an alternator that charges the batteries. It pushes it along at hull...
