I'm not sure whether this is particularly useful, but a fellow club member, Denis Linton, sailed a MK V to Ireland from Halifax about 15 or so years ago, and I believe also to Bermuda. Single handed both trips. He seemed quite satisfied with the boat but did say he did a lot of sail changes. I'd make sure that whatever you wind up with has roller furling.

He wants something that he can singlehand and use to teach the grandkids sailing. He's currently looking at a C&C 27 Mk V. Can anyone share their experiences, positive and/or negatives, with the boat? All the best, Edd ------------------------------- Edd M.
