And we find it mildly irritating when someone doesn't acknowledge valid points on the other side of an argument, especially when they claim no real world experience. Yes, lack of heeling is nice. 4...

As long as there are sailors who relish sailing (not RVing) there will always be monohulls.

Dennissailing above took my earlier comparison and made a much more elegant argument of why monos are...
