. I thought it was a great first boat. True, it didn't point well, but I didn't consider that to be very important. I just wanted to spend a day on the and stay dry. I moved on to a Pearson-26 a few years later. By then, I was able to appreciate the Pearson's nicer sailing characteristics. I'm now trying to master an old C&C-33. It's a fun process.

True, it didn't point well, but I didn't consider that to be very important. I just wanted to spend a day on the water and stay dry.
