If it's an Alan Gurney design, it will sail we'll. I had a 27 O'Day by him. 
Fairly nice boat. 

Biggest downside of the 27 was the lower shrouds were attached to a plate under 
the deck. Once the bedding broke loose the resulting leak rotted the balsa 
between the deck and plate.  Whenever I sailed in moderate to heavy breeze, 
there were "bubbles" on the deck where the plates were pulled upward. 

That's why I am a freak about how the loads from the shrouds are carried to the 
structure if the boat. I want to see a direct load path to the hull.
