Stede my brother good to see your shining words again on my screen.. GB... You do mean Ocean crusing not coastal right? For coastal crusing I prefer a much smaller boat one I can single hand. I don''t mind a V berth cabin as long as it is long enough I need over 6 feet.. I also like a comfortable head (One that doesn''t smell on warm days is even better

) Well I guess we all want something differnt out of our sailing.. Always great see you I''ll end this how I started.. God Bless...
