    Bob,

    Good Old Boat had an article a couple years back on
    the Columbia 28, where she was called a good
    comfortable coastal cruiser, but no world girdler. We
    had a 28 for a couple years and loved her. But, I'd
    not venture too far offshore.

    We've been out in 10-foot waves on Lake Erie with
    ours, and never felt out of control, but it's not an
    ocean boat. Oh, I know, many have gone to sea with
    lesser craft, but why?

    Anyway, best of luck whatever decision you make.

    Regards,
    Roland
    S/V M'Lady Kathleen (41 Coronado)
