One day we would like to do extended sailing/ocean passages. For now we are happy to coastal cruise and club race on our Beneteau 36.7. We are suspect of the handling of our race cruiser on big water and may consider a different vessel when that time comes. We would like to hear any comments from anyone who has taken one of these boats "out there" especially in heavy sea conditions. The boat is rock solid and has superb speed especially if we have to out run bad weather. We are more concerned about really heavy seas where pitching/rolling and boat handling becomes tricky. A wider profile keel design may be a better option verses the skinny blade on our boat.
