To answer your p.s. question; no, I'm not getting a Nor'Sea 27. My heart says yes, but my admiral says no! Think more along the lines of "26 miles across the sea..." ;) I know, it's kinda like dumping the homecoming queen in favor of the smartest girl in Home Ec.

Steve, Kerry already won the "Name that Tune" competition, but to answer your question more directly, I bought a Catalina 27 tall/Stockton rig (a tall rig with the boom lowered another foot and a half for increased sail area). So far, I've been working on her a lot and sailing her a little, but both are a lot of fun! Just completed a haul-out where her bottom received a sand blasting, fairing, epoxy barrier coat, bottom paint, and new thru-hulls. Currently the mast is down and I'm installing new rigging, spreader bracket, VHF antenna, halyards, sheaves, and Windex. On the deck, I'm retrofitting the chain plates with the newer U-Bolt style for greater strength (I don't always reef down when I'm supposed to). Other than that (and a dozen other minor projects) the boat's really in nice condition.

Catalinas are attractive, capable boats with great corporate and owners' support, Bob. But I hope you won't be unsubscribing from the Monty list!
