she has a beautiful line... as a starter boat you would need to be wealthy enough to have a crew to show you how to sail her though... so I see your point Anthony.   I'll do the lottery this week and you never know.

However there is nothing like a small yacht/sailboat/dinghy to get started on to teach you the basics and make mistakes safely. cheers Scotty

Hi Scotty, our first view of this craft was approaching the Fastnet when we saw a cutter rig in the distance. Unfortunately we were just too far away to get that 'classic shot'. We followed her in, with us doing about 6 knots - she pulled away from us like an express train!

You're right though, getting out there is the thing -trying hard to keep the kids interest up.
