I love sailing because quite simply I love being on the water

My dream destination would be sailing the North West Passage

Cruiser racers start in size from "Boysie" a Hunter Sonata 23 foot which despite it's size is a very competitive boat easy to sail with 4 crew and fun. (right)

The boat "Chaos" is a Laser 28 foot a true cruiser/racer designed for speed. (below Left)
