Far Canal's user name suggests that it may not be the neighbour's wife he is interested in... (sorry, couldn't resist!) Anyway Far Canal, that's not exactly a ringing endorsement of your boat, but I appreciate the honesty!

having an ole Tasar as a boat to occaisonaly sail with the misses , I reckon you would have more fun in a 2000 with its kite , the tasar is light responsive etc , but boring on a run goose winged ,which they seem to do a lot , and you are used to a kite and would miss it sorely .
PS hope you found out what made your crew pregnant and take suitable precautionary measures , I've heard of couples having half a doz sproggs before the penny drops !
I've always preffered safe sex --------
Sh*g yur neighbour !

Is that what they call lateral thinking? I hadn't considered that, I could never convince her to take the helm on the 200, but maybe she'd prefer to be on her own. Mind you, I'm looking for an excuse to get out of the Laser - I prefer two-man boats. |

The 3000 has a trapeze, which we don't really want. Also I suspect I am too big and much older than most other owners! I think the choice really comes down to a Tasar or the 2000. The 2000 should be very familiar to us as it is virtually an identical layout to the 200, but on a more spacious and stable platform. The Tasar looks great, but maybe we would spend more time learning how to sail it rather than just enjoying the sail. Can anyone describe what the Tasar is like to sail in comparison to a boat I know (say a 200, 400 or 2000)? Thanks for all the suggestions.

A 2000 is a fantastic boat! We have over 12 at bough beech now. And they regualrily race (not all at the same time). They have a really gd open circuit and are good in a blow and very stable. I highly reccomend it!

That sounds even less appealing than an Ent! Seriously though, I'd like to avoid 'proper' spinnakers, as neither of us have used them (well I did on a 420 donkies years ago) and I think they're just to difficult. Also, can you get GRP GPs? Really I'd like something a bit more modern. Thanks for trying though. |
