Greg, is it the swing or fixed keel version? Since you mention trailer-sailing I'll guess the former and I'll suggest you may have trouble working upwind in our Summer conditions. Nothing against the boat (they sold 3,000 of them) but for the Bay I'd beef up the standing rigging and attachments, and take a careful look at the blocks and their attachments. Pop rivets ain't gonna cut it. Our Bay Breeze has pulled the chainplates right through a Soverel 33's deck, and that's just one I know about personally. There have been others.
