Hello,
I'm looking at the 33.7 and would appreciate hearing from any Beneteau owners about their experience with and/or impressions of the boat.
Sailboatdata says the Sail Area/Displacement ratio is 17.42, which seems low for a boat with an average PRHF of 126. Also the Disp/Len is 197, which should indicate a relatively light boat, and thus a fast(er) boat, if I'm right about that.
What kind of speed in what air does the boat have? How is it to single hand? Seens to be set up pretty well for single handing, epsecially as a fractional rig with a larger main sail and smaller jib compared to the older masthead sloops I've been considering.
thanks in advance for any responses.
