sailing is currently going foiling
light strong new stuff like carbon fiber allows boats to get up and fly
but at very high cost

the Mac 26, now the Tattoo 26 is a poor sail boat compromised to trailer and power
the cal 25 is a better sailor but slow under power and hard to get on a trailer [needs a lift/crane]
if you can keep it on a mooring/anchor it would get more use then trailer sailing it
docks/slips can cost alot depending on location and demand

bigger boats with roller unfurling are eazyer to sail with less crew
but as I call then unfurling they will do that in a storm so get the kind with a slot
so you can get the sail off the furler it also allows changing the sail eazyer
