performance package
Posted: Sun Jun 06, 2004 6:14 pm
I am interested in buying a new or fairly new Classic 36. The factory has a performance package with a tall rig, screecher, bowsprit and mylar sails. My sailing will be in the Caribbean for a few years prior to permanently in the Sea of Cortez. The latter is characterized often by fairly calm winds, and I thought that an improved light air capability might be advantageous. However, I would like to learn the opinions of current owners as to whether such a $16,000 option is worth it since the PDQ is already has good sailing qualities and an enhanced light air rig may be an overkill.
