That's right about the saildrive. I was in Norfolk, VA heading north and spent the night in a marina next to a Gemini 105. The G had come south from Deltaville in some choppy Chesapeake Bay weather and the saildrive was leaking. The owner had a mechanic come over to help resolve the problem but said the boat needed to be hauled. The owner of the Gemini said the heavy weather on the lower Chesapeake Bay beat up the boat pretty bad. Something to consider despite all the hype about the ability to cross oceans.
