Hi Tom, you need to turn up the volume pal. I can only just hear you with the volume on full

Thanks, Tom for an interesting and informative video.
I think I agree with Tom's preferences in preferring a1970
type of Yacht.
Personally, I started with a Skerry cruiser S-30 after 12 years
I changed for a bigger more comfortable Yacht as the family grew in number and size.
The next one was an HR 352, also a 1970-type design with an aft cabin.
I think you must also consider how much effort you have to put into sailing your Yacht.
The S-30 was extraordinary in sailing without effort, easily sailing with not much sail. I sailed from Ystad to Helsingfors in just 10 days
( 60 miles a day) with my two girls 12/14 years of age. The 12 year
Mia was very good at sailing with a full Tri-radial spinnaker at 7-9 knots downwind. The boat was perfectly balanced.
Now after 36 years with HR 352 I sold my yacht last summer.
Today I enjoy watching Tom's videos and taking part in the Zoom meetings every month.

Great content as always. Small note: the audio was quite poor on this one, something has been changed for the worse.

Always a pleasure watching! That full keeler is a charm.. Those modern boats really are tough on the eyes

Regarding tenderness. a few years ago I bought a Swan 411, which ended up being more tender than I thought it would be, and at first I worried that I had made a mistake. In many discussions, tenderness is described as an undesirable characteristic, but after sailing my boat in many conditions it turns out that the abundant tenderness is one of my favorite facets of the design. There are just too many good things to say about how the design aspects come together to make this boat an excellent sailing vessel. I now understand how tenderness relates to beneficial performance, sensitivity, and comfort. So, as a single quality, IMHO, tenderness doesn't deserve a reputation.

For myself, I prefer boats like the first one you looked at, classical in shape, good performance and inherently safe. Boats like the S&S 34, 39, Swansons, Duncanson 35, Cole 35 etc are what I would choose. Even the little Swanson 30 that I race on regularly offers a lot of boat for not a lot of expense.

Modern boats do nothing for me, and ditto long keel boats are not my thing.
