An absolute classic; a fiberglass Finisterre. Designed by MacLear & Harris who worked under Olin Stephens with Francis Kinney and Al Mason on the original Finisterre. Because of fiberglass construction rather than wood (as was the original Finisterre), the interior volume of Finisterre is not lost in the shorter waterline Seabreeze. Fast, seakindly and comfortable inside, she's the ideal cruising boat of her size. Her bulletproof hull performs as may be expected of a sister to Finisterre. After the first few boats, MacLear & Harris specified an additional 1,000 pounds of ballast (in lead pigs). At typical cruising weight, her Capsize Ratio is 1.62 and her Motion Comfort Index is 40.7. The bronze centerboard boats are preferable to the later aluminum centerboard version, which may have corrosion problems. Wolf Hound

Have owned a Nonsuch 30C for 7 yrs. Build quality is excellent. Really fast boat on a reach and down wind. Points about 5 degrees less than a racing sloop. Down wind can keep up with a sloop flying a spinnaker. (No spinnaker pole needed and the time to put it up and take it down along with the headsail change, offsets the somewhat slower speed of the Nonsuch). The Nonsuch needs at least 10knts to really perform. Have raced in 20 - 25knts W/O reefing. 40 footers, catch me if you can on a reach in 20knts! I have actually gotten the Nonsuch to plane. I had reservations about buying a Nonsuch after owning several racing sloops. I do not regret my decision to buy the Nonsuch.

Points well for shoal draft(5'1"), very livable, electrical system/all systems have held up extremely well('93 yr boat), aft galley is very nice to work in, decent storage, small holding tanks, great family boat, easily handled/docked, handles heavy weather well, regularly average 7/7.5 on beam reach, easily goes 8.5 in 15kts plus, it's a fun boat, it's always the boat everyone wants to go out on

We purchased our 1984 CAL 35 MK II in April of 2012. We've been full time live aboard since. We've sailed her from Panama City to the Chesapeake Bay via the Gulf and outside up the East Coast. She sails well on all points but can bash a bit to weather in a chop. It can be a bit unnerving at times but if you bare off a bit, it can help considerably. There isn't much info to be had on these old girls but we find her to be a great boat for the money. Tons of room and storage. The shower has been of great use as we live on her full time. The old Universal 5432 is running like a champ and the only drawback there is the 11 + quarts of oil she uses on EACH oil change. We did the ICW down to Florida and that can get costly if you change every 75 hrs. which I do. Other than that, Cal legacy with a great layout for two people. We have the model without the Quarter berth as we wanted the big lazarette. If you have guests for any length of time it can be a pain in the ass and somewhat awkward with your guests right there in the middle of the salon. All things being equal. We love the boat. We've not done any major mods as of yet. None needed. Looking forward to taking her places. It's all out in the open at www.mondovacilando.com S/V Vacilando

After 40 years now and still sailing well. Just bought one and hull and deck still strong, mast support has been redone, a few blisters fixed but other than that still strong and functional. somethings are built to last and I think these boats are one of them. I think that I will even keep the atomic 4. if it an't broke don't fix it. I think that this boat and engine proves that if you have something built well and maintain it well it should last a long time.

I owned a Georgian 23 (named Jenta) for about 15 yrs and sailed it out of Wiarton (where I lived at the time) and it was a great boat! It was our first sailboat and we learned on it and it fogave our many mistakes, never let us down. In light airs it was a dog until I purchased a 160 DRS off a Niagra 26 from George Hinterholter. This made a world of diggerance although you are still not going to beat many other sail boats LOL we spent about 14 summers in the north channel on it and had a great time, I can recommend this boat to anyone! If any one wishes to contact me and ask more, pls do so

Have owned a Sadler 34 since 1985. Great boat for its size and price. Seaworthy and good sailer for its size and weight. Sails well to its PHRF rating. Used in Long Island Sound, Rhode Island and Cape Cod.

I moved up to this '91 boat from a 22 Chrysler and haven't stopped moving yet. I love to sail this boat in all conditions....although when breeze moves over 12 knots, weather helm increases exponentially. The "apartment" is beautifully appointed and planned. The 25xp universal is a dream. Have her for 5 years now and will never look back.
