I don't want to add further confusion...but the idea toward a Mystere 4.3 has some merit. There is one or two around in the area and it is a boat that can be as simple as you like or as complicated. Alex, Mystere 4.3 sailor from Atlanta - GA, is sometimes looking for crew.
Still, though, the advice to sail on few different boats has some merit although you'll likely have to look past a few personalities.
You started a pretty hot topic here!
