Thanks so much for taking us along with you, "Bruce-Who-Never-Reefs"... ; ) We missed your videos lately. Cheers and fair winds, from Japan.

Do you still have the O'Day or did you replace it? If so, why? Do you have a preference?

@brucedyson-smith459 10 ай бұрын

Yes I do have the Oday still and it is a much more capable boat than the Heron. I did the Heron as an experiment and to use it for short daysails where it is easier to launch being smaller.They are very different boats so comparing them isn’t really viable. I hope this answers your question. Cheers Bruce

@brucedyson-smith459 , thanks Bru e. Yes, I would think the O'Day more capable. It's fun to discover the different capabilities of different boats.
