I live in Michigan so I have access to a lot of prime sailing waters so and it has always interested me so I'm going to pick up a boat in the off season. I like the older Catalina boats because they are affordable and plentiful in my area. At first I was thinking of a swing keel 22 with the pop top but I would prefer to have my cabin always ready and I probably wouldn't trailer it. Only benefit to the swing keel as I can see is access. The Catalina 27 is really calling to me. I like the taller cabin and the built in motor. Any thoughts on this

I learned by going out on a sloop one night a thousand years ago. Then I bought a sloop--and learned the finer points simply by sailing it ('tweren't no internet). 25 years later, I'm just refreshing and maybe learning things I never knew. Sailors are rare this far inland. Oh wow, now I know that I need to go sail triangular courses!

As a modest gesture of sincere thanks I was just gonna toss a dollar your way towards your new clubhouse by PayPal through your website, but the minimum donation's $2. So, OK...That's not a deal breaker: I can toss about a "quid" instead of a "buck" to our British cousins. But then there's no direct PayPal...Instead there's something called "Just Giving", requiring some new registration. Mindful of the high likelihood that should I register as a "soft touch" for philanthropic causes, henceforth my email will be clogged until the end of time with appeals from well-intentioned groups like "Rescue the Hedgehogs" or "Concerned Citizens Alliance for Safer Goats Milk," I am afraid I'll have to defer and leave you with my best wishes alone.
