Reply to: Advice on Sail Boat Purchase

Message body

[quote=DrivenByTheWind]I've been vaguely following this thread with a few ideas running around my head. At first my thoughts were a beach cat is a bit lively and on the edge to learn sailing while teaching the grandkids. Seeing as you are on the ocean my first thought was look for an F-24, F-27 or maybe the newer F-22 design. I love the Farrier tris and it seems like nice way to bring people along and not get boring (unless you're my kids). But, the price, even used, is beyond what you can get a well outfitted beachcat for. I don't know your price range. Then Yesterday I saw another note in another file and it made me think of this thread, a Weta. Not boring, light and easy to set up, stable and fast. it struck me as a good solution.

Oh, the optimist thing, maybe for the kids, but not an adult. When was the last time you got on a small boat like that? I know Sunfish are a lot smaller and unstable than when I was just a kid. I found an optimist cramped when I was 12.

Look into a Weta, it might be the solution you're looking for.[/quote]
