New to this boat, I have been told that it is not a good choice for
off-shore day sails. That it may not be a safe boat.
Well here is the thing. I have been over the last year in some good puffs
and this boat seams very capable of handling 30 to 35 wit the correct sails
and reefed properly. She handles the chop in the Port royal Sound on the
fetch as well. rolling seas off the coast of 5 to 6 she takes of the nose
and still stays dry? With her deep draw and stiff build one would guess she
was a capable boat?
Have any of you been an a long trip in a 30MK1 if so
please describe the experience. A blog would be great. Just trying to learn
all I can about my new old boat.
Thanks Capt, Curt
