Thanks, I've been in an M and X. The 19 looks interesting, less fuel, space is not that much of an issue but is the 19 more like the D or S or taller like the X or M. 19 specs 6'1 with enclosure.
Thanks

Before you decide on a CDI for your Genny have a look at the Schaefer Snapfurl CF 700, your daughter can pick it up at Trotac Marine in Victoria ($714.00 plus tax & shipping) for you and then after a visit you can lug it home. If you get out this way in 2008 have a look at mine. Nice boat you spoiled brat, how is it you got it so fully outfitted? I am envious.

Highlander,
Hey I recognize that place. I'm hoping to pick mine up in a few weeks. Congratulations. Can't wait to see what you do with it. Are you rigging it yourself?

I just received my copy of “Practical Sailor” and the March issue (Vol 34 #3) has an excellent article on Bow sprit-mounted furlers. The review is 7 pages’s long and covers seven different brands. These furlers are a new generation design, intended for fixed or removable sprits and light-air sails.

Yes I am doing my own rigging it will be easier to rig the M with the taller mast converting it to a mast head cutter rig
when you p/u your boat make sure you buy a good load strap to tie down the rear of the boat to the trl
