    Well you might consider this. Your keel is what keeps your boat from slipping sideways which is why full keel boats track better and so cruisers like them. Fin keels are better for racing because...

    Oh, and I forgot one other advantage. If you are a cruiser with a full keel boat, you don't have to fiddle with your windvane as much as with a fin keeled boat. Linda

    When I sailed from Panama to the Galapagos there was no reason to use my engine. However, it is really nice to have when coming into a port. You can take the sails down, you can manuever easily...

    Well I was in a Union 36. The boat I sailed had a Hans Christian hull. Very thick fiberglass. It took a pounding for sure - broke all the igloo water jugs strapped to the rail. Had an outboard...
