A friend of mine says that if you aren't embarrassed by your initial offer you haven't offered low enough.

Tartan 28....Beautiful to sail and to look at. This boat definatly has many features found on much larger boats and is a pleasure to sail.

You need to sail on some more boats and get a feel for them. As an owner of an SJ 26 I can tell you that it isn't the most comfortable boat to sail on. Very tender,fast but light. I would suggest you try to go sailing on some heavier small boats to experience the differences.
