Research Ideas
These boats represent such an extreme in build quality and design philosophy that I suggest that you take more time and do more sailing to figure out exactly what you are looking for from a boat. Most of these boats are coastal cruisers at best, a couple are heavily racing oriented, and the Caliber is marketed as a distance cruiser which comes at the price of being a pretty mediocre coastal cruiser. I would suggest that you get a smaller, lighter boat, spend a lot of time sailing it and coming to understand your tastes and skills and that will help you decide what makes sense for your needs and what are the disirable characteristics of a ''blue water'' boat.
