Re: lv-ab: pointy ended boats

    I had a Crealock 37 and she sailed well. Her canoe stern was said to be more
    seaworthy, but she was just as difficult to steer in following or quartering
    seas as other sailboats. You lose stowage space in pointy-ended boats and
    the Crealock is extremely short on stowage.

    Don't listen to me, however, as when I shifted to power I got a Willard 40
    trawler which has two pointy ends.

    | Could I possibly get some opinions, pro? con? amateur?, on double-ended
    sailboats. I'd like to hear a discussion of the advantages & disadvantages
    for coastal, inland and blue water. I am interested in something similar to
    the Crealock 37.
