aboard a ship along with about 40 other 'babies'. I remember when I first came face to face with my boat. It was huge. I wondered, "Oh crap, what have I done?" However, the worst thing I had done was permanently changed my persective about how much space I need. I don't think I could go back to a small cockpit on a big boat. Well, probabably I could but I'd know what I used to have!
It's about the biggest cat I'd really care to singlehand. I do it regularly but much bigger and I wouldn't be going alone very often. That does not mean that this is really 'almost too big', just that going out for an hour is still easy but don't let the electrical halyard winch fail me boyz!
