I have sailed my Oday 28 offshore to the Bahamas and back. We had winds up to about 30kn. With double reefed main and a 70% jib, she handled it pretty well. I have little experience with other boats of the same size, but I think she is rather dry and handles very well. I wonder if others have had such experiences and would like to know if this boat has a bad habit under certain conditions that I should know about. I am planning another trip this summer. Besides the 70% jib, I have a 100, 130, and a cruising spinnaker. She has Navik vane stering and an auto-pilot. I have recently installed a new Westerbeke 12 horse power, twin diesel, and love it. If you have a similar boat and experiences, let's chat.
