Thats a REALLY nice reply Jeff !!!!!

The real problem with double enders and cutter rigs is that those who sail them hardly ever arrive at the finess of knowledge needed to make them .... go. If you have prior experience in racing or in unstable dinghy sailing, etc. , then you can translate that knowledge into making such a ''complicated'' boat work to the higher range of its potential. Otherwise, they easily become Winnebagos with sails ... and with prematurely worn out engines.

Such boats do have a slow roll period. I power-puke from fast rolling so such a boat is ''match'' for me.
