Reply to: Help in finding my new (old) boat

[quote=onemorecat][quote=bradinjax] Hobie 21 SC's are hard to find and when they do come up for sale they seem to be a bit pricey in my opinion. What feature is it about the SC that attracts you? [/quote] We don't really want and would not use the performance of the SE or the Miracle 20; either would need some mods to give us what we are looking for (if I understand the boats properly). Things we find attractive about the SC: * stays within trailer limit * furling jib and easily reefed main * lots of creature comfort for day-long sailing * dry (OK, damp, but we have roll-top bags) storage for picnics, warm-up clothing, etc. * large rear tramp and a good front tramp; we hope to have guests frequently (kids live local, as do other family, and we have a few friends :-) ) * most seem to come with outboards, a useful thing with a larger boat on the west coast, where winds push you against the shore and bays/piers/boat-ramps always seem to face the wrong way :roll: We want to build up our skills and comfort level to where we could (for example) put in at San Diego on a Saturday morning, sail north on the coast as far as we can get, overnight with what we have aboard in a motel, and come back the next day. Or maybe, on good weather weekends, go out to Catalina.[/quote]
