Hi, I'm looking for a larger boat, and the Oceanus 300 has caught my eye. Is the displacement of 7,055lbs correct? This give the boat a D/L of 132, very very low. Even the J-32 has a D/L over 200 - the J-24 is more in line with this sub 150 D/L. I understand the Oceanus 300 was only made for a couple of years - why is that? Is this boat too tender to be a cruiser? Do any of them have deep keels, or are they all shoal? Can it be reefed from the cockpit? If the D/L is really that low, and the sail area/dispacement ratio that high, is the boat still suitable for fast coastal cruising? Thanx, John :)
