John,
Just curious, is your friend with a 37 doing the crossing from Halifax,
do just leaving from here?
Note your comment " he has prepared the boat over the last few
seasons."....something for Shawn to think about beyond his initial purchase.
A club member spent all last year preparing his boat (Hunter 41 ???)
for his trip from Halifax to the Caribbean (staying there for a
year).....he spent more preparing his boat for the trip than Shawn is
spending on purchasing a 35-II.
And then we have a sailor here that has crossed the Atlantic in a C&C
27....without all the bells and whistles (unlike the Hunter 41 with a
fully enclosed heated cockpit).

1985 C&C 37 this summer, cruise the Med for a few years, and then head
for Caribbean.
He has over 25 years sailing experience (NZ, French Polynesia,
Philippines, Taiwan, Japan, etc)
He has no issues going across the Atlantic in his 37, but he has
prepared the boat over the last few seasons.
