I lost my boat to Hurricane Charley and am looking for a Cal 29 or Cal 2-29. Other then the wheel steering, the Fairyman engine and the keel configuration, is there any other differences? Is there much difference in their sailing qualities? Living in Southwestern Florida I will need a bimini, however the mainsheet will get in the way. If I buy a Cal 29-2 can the mainsheet be moved to the end of the boom and the track moved to the back of the seats in the cockpit? If I remove the wheelsteering will the tiller work as well as the original Cal-29?Over the years I've owned a Cal-20, Cal-24,(the one with a centerboard),Cal 2-27, and a Cal 3-30. I have always admired the Cal-29 and look forward to sailing one.If anyone knows where there is one for sale, that's well equipped and at a reasonable price please write or call me. What I would really like is a Cal-2-29 with a different diesel engine with the wheel removed and a tiller installed. Marv Marcusmsrm@comcast.net (941) 613-2912
