Bumfuzzle - who''''s right?

Hi - this is my first post as the weather is too crap to sail today. I can''t believe all the yacking that goes on in this board about their boat!! Me and my wife are also young in our late 20''s and are in the 1st year of our circumnavigation. My wife had never sailed and I have some experience and we have managed. The schionning designed Wildcat is not a bad boat for a circumnavigation and @ 35 ft is a good compromise. All boats are compromises - after all ours is a steel 38 footer bullet proof but slow. The Wildcat has the ability to maintain a higher speed and thus has the ability to avoid storms where as we are forced to run or punch our way through them. I have personally sailed a simular sized cat over the Tasman Sea in 7 metre seas and 55 knots of wind without any problems - we just set the sea anchor and went to bed. I think some of you guys in here need to get a life and actually start a circumnavigation - it takes balls - especially if you are new to the game - also we also enjoy our beer and mackers burgers!
