In Response To: Scott (Bud)

Scott, Bigger boats are not only more expensive in every direction but are more complicated and length does not equal fun. Keep things simple. Maybe your girlfriend wants to take the helm more! Sailing is fun, riding isn't. Kind of like canoeing, snowmobiling, cycling, etc. More size/room equates to more complexity. Keep things simple. Follow YOUR passions. Annie
