Comfortable coastal cruiser sailed on Lake Michigan.
Airy, attractive cabin with enough teak to create warmth.
Traditional appearance. Not the best gel coat. Sails
little stern heavy. Pretty good boat for the money if
prudently purchased on the used boat market.

I'm now in my 11th year with Pangaea.
She is a well built, strong and comfortable but because of her weight, D/L of 325 outboard chain plates, full ends and draft of 4'2" she lacks to weather. She's not horable or anything like that but she does suffer some in this arena.One of the best boats for the money without question. Feel free to email me for more info on her.

Sailed from Lake Champlain to Cuba, Bahamas, down and up ICW in E32 "Dream Weaver". Voyage described in my book "Sailing to Hemingway's Cuba" (Sheridan House, 2000). Tough, predictable, well-built cruiser. Troubles encountered during four-year voyage in this 1977 model: Shallow fuel pan means you can suck air when motorsailing when heeled to starboard; usually occurs after 8-10 hours of motoring. Prop shaft is 7/8 inches and had trouble with it pulling free after badly reinstalled, and breaking once. Portlights tend to develop leaks over time and stain surrounding teak veneer. Enough exterior teak to be a maintenance nuisance. Old design and somewhat heavy by today's standards, but that's nice in the dark in the Gulf Stream. Even an older model, if well maintained, could provide a lot of value for the money for coastal cruising.
