and I love the general concept of the open bridgedeck enclosable hard-top rather than a hard cabin bridgedeck, and the dinghy hoist is awesome. It's built too heavy to be considered a performance cat, but it sure would be a great platform in place like Block Island or just about any other anchorage.
Did you read about the concern I posted above (about the rudder and saildrive vulnerability if the boat goes aground)? Is it a valid concern in your view?
