thnx for the offer but i am not looking for a new boat yet . i was just musing on what to do when i get bored/too big for a 29er. cherubs look like great boats and from what ive seen on here the competition would be quite entertaining. its definitly worth considering. the thing i am realy interested in is should it be 49er, cherub or other next? any unbiased opinions will be useful.

My opinion is totaly biassed but I know of at least one person who sailed a cherub, then moved 'up' into a 49er only to sell it 6 months later and get another cherub because it just didnt have the same buzz.
The speed on paper is not what matters in having fun, its the impression of speed and nothing creates that feeling better than a short boat with a lot of rag.

Trust me, even a slower cherub feels bullet fast, they are soo bouncy its amazing, hanging off the back as you hurtle along!

Just so you all know the price of Sweet Dreams has been dropped to £2200! I really need to sell it soon! It comes complete and ready to get your heart racing on the water or to convert in time for the new season with a double stacking combi trailer and under over covers, kevlar main, dacron jib, 2 kites, angell carbon mast and boom. Most importantly this boat is only 50.5Kg's so is incredibly light!

If you're interested PM me ASAP!
