Don't know that I would fancy a boat with "Poor heavy weather performance" for use on the Irish Sea!

Sailed ours from Athens to France in March a few years ago hit some really bad weather but she got us through fine. Havent sold her yet and are still very happy with her now going back in the other direction. Palma, Sardinia, Sicily dont know where we will end up.

Some nice photo's of the boat Stu, do you get any to have framed?

Where were you, did you just hand the keys over and leave them to it or were you just hiding from the camera?

Think she was looking in fabulous condition and you never mentioned a cool box in the saloon, next sunny afternoon like Sunday I am inviting myself on board for a cold beer, cheers!

he seemed a nice chap as well! got caught in a 7 coming back from aberystwyth last year and she took it all in her stride, didnt even dip her nose under the waves, had the wind on the nose all the way as well.
it seems to the percieved thing but i can disagree using first hand knowledge

request on the bene owners site, phoned him up and arranged, only trouble was that the little matter of winning an election got in the way and the arranged date was my induction day as county councillor, anyway swbo and daughter said they would do it and then mike caplan from dickies said he would help out, very kind of him, v nice fellow. so they all met up and put her thru her paces. wind was 4-5 and swmbo was mightily impressed. toe rail in the water etc. promised nice glossy pix and free subscription for a yr.
not only cool box but compressor for cool box!! always a cold cold beer for forumites even big mouth oops sorry big mart,

Re: Free Beer

ooops, meant cockpit not saloon, same odds though, cold beer, sunny afternoon.

Just how many boats do you think we could raft onto Sonsy Lass' pile mooring before 'Ken' (the HM) would start to get jumpy, 6, 7 10 ....
