I used to sail on a buccaneer 28. Very spacious cabin with plenty of headroom. Not the greatest sailing boat if you wanted to get anywhere though.
wharram cat. 1960's, build a boat, get a hippi girl friend, sail the world. i adore James Wharram and what he did
Stone Horse 26 designed by Sam Crocker.
I grew up hearing about an interview with Sam Crocker in which the interviewer asked him, "What can be done to get more people into sailing?" His answer, "Why would you want to do that?"

Will - the Stone Horse has nice lines.
Rounded Cape Caution CA in pea soup fog and a good wind. Met up with a couple returning from Alaska and they didn't have any radar so we buddy-boated until the visibility finally picked up. Can't remember if it was lapstrake or not but think it may have been. This is a fairly busy traffic route so just wanted to help them with avoiding targets. Their boat was green and white.
Jon's Cal 20 is an interesting boat. There was one that sold a few years ago in the local Marina sale for unpaid rent and, from what I remember, it went pretty cheap which is about par because of no trailer. For someone looking to pick up a project boat these occasional marina sales can be a good place to scope out.

Stone Horse with a 9' Dyer Dhow in tow. A smart, close to home pocket cruiser package for a young family or a couple.
I LOVE Boothbay. Went there for my graduation trip, it was a lot of fun and gorgeous!
Jeanneau Sunfast 3600 completely obliterating the competition during a Rum Race this past month.
That is sure a snazzy paint job. Wonder if it is a Wrap?
We saw some really good wrap material at the Vancouver Boat Show. Offered as an alternative to paint. Any one have experience with a boat wrap? Has it held up? How does it handle dings?
