But when I think about my next boat, I still think big heavy Alberg-designed cruisers with a comfortable cabin and lots of teak. When I'm considering a Tartan, it's not the T10 racer, but an S&S designed Tartan 30 which, while fast, is more family oriented. And my favorite boat is still a Cape Dory like this 30 foot cutter:
Who knows what I'll end up with, quite possibly a T10 or Flying Tiger, but I'm betting it'll be something with a ridiculously heavy keel, a couple of reef points, a dodger, and PHRF rating up in the stratosphere. And I'll still race her.

Are you sure that isn't a picture of the Polka Dot with different colored sail covers?
I was reading about Swan boats-those look pretty cool, and there's a dealership in Point Richmond. What would one of those set you back?
B
hah.
The Swan that I would want: several million. An older 43 footer: $200K. I'll do a partnership.
