Great sailboat for the family We sail Talvi in the Baltic Sea with 3 people (2 adults and 1 child). Since we do a lot of cooking on board, we appreciate the excellent galley and, most importantly, the owner's berth and separate shower. It's a very forgiving boat, even in Baltic waves and stronger winds. The workmanship is showing its age in some places; with a boat over 25 years old, there's always something that needs replacing. We have a ventilation issue on board, something we hadn't experienced on other boats, and sometimes, even if only a little, water collects in the bilge. Therefore, we keep a dehumidifier on board all year round. The price-performance ratio is absolutely fantastic!

The ideal single-hand cruising boat I've sailed the boat almost 10,000 nautical miles in the North and Baltic Seas, mostly single-handed, and even in Force 9 winds and Baltic waves, I always felt safe. The sailing performance is quite adequate for a boat of this generation, and as a cruising sailor, winning every regatta isn't the priority. However, the living comfort is impressive, with a separate shower and master cabin. For me, a Hallberg or Najad, which are in the same class, wouldn't be an alternative, and not just because of the price.
