I have never owned or sailed one, however a slip neighbour I know used to own one and misses her dearly. He sailed from Toronto, to St. Johns Newfoundland, then down to the Caribean and back over a long sebaticle.

He claims it was overbuilt, and easy to single hand. He sold it to buy a smaller yacht and a house. Apparently he''d trade both to get the old boat back in a heartbeat.
