Haber 660 Cutter - Any opinions?

[swanny]

Withdrawal symptoms are becoming too difficult to ignore since selling Cocoro and if I spend any longer looking at boat ads I'll go blind! I've looked at many, many boats that may fit my bill but I keep coming back to this funny little trailerable/trailer sailor. It's hard to ignore even with it's offbeat looks. I want to be able to park my boat where I like out of the water. Move it myself and sometimes slip it in the water off the trailer. Room for two to spend some time aboard, easy up and down of mast, choice of propulsion, electric or diesel, very easy to handle by one person, room to live out of the rain etc. I don't want expensive berthing fees, to be at the whim of craning in and out, to be restricted to the same old cruising ground compass a weekend restricts you too. It needs to be a lift keeler/dagger board/swing whatever to go to the shore/sit low on a trailer. I have been on one of these little cruisers and it's solidly built. I've chatted with an owner who swears it sails well though it's no racer of course. The Cat B version is pretty stable also he says. I can't fault all the theory. Does anyone have any experience of these boats? I've read all the reviews, English, German and Polish - nobody has much negative to say, if at all. You Tube has some great videos -http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gjFP_bjTELU

This link takes you to the Friends of Haber Facebook page, nice photo's showing the flexibility of the little tub!

Any opinions or knowledge of the Haber 660??

Very positive review in either PBO / YM a few months back, I can't remember exactly when. Mind you, when is a PBO / YM review not very positive

Still, I can see why you like her, it's a great concept.
