Thanks, Chuck and Sailingfool...

No... I don't have unlimited funds. Obviously, I'm no expert sailboat design or what makes a good one or bad one. Just seemed to make sense in these parts to have a protected prop and rudder? I realize that in the ocean that would not be a problem...or should not be...something can always be floating anywhere. Anyhow, my dockage area is about maxed out at 5' at low tide...perhaps not that much at low low. Looked at a 42 Whitby today...looked nice, well cared for...however...after reading your comments, Sailingfool, I guess I'll have to rethink things.

Chuck, something happened to your private message. If you could resend it I would appreciate it. Thank you.
