sailingfool will become famous soon enough
Since i'm not personnally experienced with with Tayana so I did a quick web search and found:
TAYANA:
1. built in Taiwan
2. mostly teak decks
3. internal steel ballast.
4. PHRF 173 (gives 5 seconds a mile to my old C&C 30!)

Sounds like a boat to buy if salty good looks are the prime consideration! Items 1 through 3 are each toss-out reasons, put all three together with a fundamentally slow boat and you'd have to be in La La...
