Anyone ever sailed on an Anastasia sailboat? There is a 32 here for sale and is gorgeous but I can't any info on how they sail.

I replied incorrectly to your post and can't seem to delete my reply without just typing over it. Sorry about that. If anyone in management can delete this response I'd appreciate it.

Boat designed by Bruce Bingham; he designed a few small offshore capable vessels like the Flicka 20. I'm not familiar with the Anastasia but its full keel, small cockpit and outboard mounted shrouds point to an offshore vessel design. The shape of the hull is also indicative of a boat having comfortable sea motion in large swells. At 23,000 lbs of displacement she is a heavy one. There were only 7 boats made from 1978 to 1979 so you may have some difficulty finding people with first hand knowledge of the boat. The proof is in the pudding, if you have the chance to take her out on a sea trial you may see for yourself how she handles.
