Because it's you and not the boat...

Banging head against the bulkhead, the stupid it burns, and I'd very much like to shake this person's hand...

The other day I overheard someone tell somebody that you could not do any serious cruising in a Wharram cat and it got me thinking...

For one, about how, for designs apparently unsuitable for serious cruising, a whole lot of Wharrams seem to have done some pretty serious cruising which, sorta/kinda, would seem to contradict the statement...

Secondly, that I 'd be willing to bet the guy dissing the Wharram designs wouldn't appreciate a Jessie Cooper or LM2...

And thirdly, about how most boats are actually more than up to the task of serious cruising it's just the average yachtsman that's less than up to the task.

Nuff said.
