Porpoise performance - 2008/07/24 17:11
We are interested in a 1971 built Porpoise design (42' LOD - 54'LOA?).
The price is right, the lines are gorgeous and the potential is there but we would like more info on performance. We are having a hard time finding anything specific to Bill Garden designs on line.
Can anyone help with numbers such as Sail Area & Sail-Disp ratio.
We plan on using the boat on the south-west BC coast for the next ten years or so and also the possibility of some longer trips to Mexico or Hawaii.
Our concern is performance in the prevailing light airs in our area (Gulf Island)since we will be doing most of our crusing for the next while during the summer months and also how she would performance out on the blue.
Also can anyone suggest links for more info?
