Inland Sailor,



There are two Getaways in my area. We regularly sail with/against each other in a coastal bay, so I can't speak for inland lakes. Here is my opinion:



- In light winds the boat doesn't handle very well. As the wind builds, the boat performs much better. When the wind builds, much like a H16/P16, the boat comes into its own.

- Waves and chop seem to hamper to boat as well. The front tramp digs into the tops of waves and slows progress.

- Weight, the boat weighs close to my I-20. Not sure exact weight, but helping push it off the trailor/pulling it on the trailer, it seems heavy for its size.

- Fun factor, most important part of the boat. Example, 4 adults on board and a case of favorite beverage in the built in coolers, priceless.



For someone looking for a fun, indestructible boat, buy one.



FYI, we have been looking for tuning tips and haven't found much.
