Chuck,
Having raced a 34R, I agree with good sails but you would also need a
very competent, aggressive crew. The boat needs all the power it can
deliver to sail to its numbers and only an aggressive crew will be able
to deliver that. The 34R is not the boat for the timid skipper and crew.

Dennis,
So many variables. Location, prevailing conditions, local coastal or offshore
events.
I would probably lean towards a 34R with new sails including an Assym and
Symmetrical Chute, a baby smooth bottom job, and really good beer so I could
attract the best possible crew. And let someone really good drive because I am
terrible driving upwind.
