Today I believe I sailed my boat to its handicap

   In view of all we were saying on the OK thread, the 300 does look like a nice boat.  
If only it weren't so tippy.  A tad more waterline beam would help, but would make it slower.  I wonder if a small footwell would help - as I recall, standing up was critical to the early stages of familiarisation, and getting down off that double-floor would settle things down somewhat.  I'd take the hassle of a little bailer in exchange.

	My boat always sails to its handicap, unfortunately I sometimes don't
