I doubt theres much difference in a 30 to a 37.
But heres an example of the difference between a 30 and 40.
I needed some tripple blocks for my davits. The little ones cost about $40 probably fine for a little dink on a little boat, but the ones I needed cost $150 each... And i need 4!!!
Of course the forum nutcases will say I could of got them on eBay for 2 cents, but those people live at home, where I am "somewhere out there".
Cost don't go up exponentially, but the linear graph must be fairly steep. However, the added expense is worth it for comfort, safety and sailing enjoyment.
