Very nice boat, and ineed it is quite involving, that is one of the reasons that I stopped sailing after 25 years. From the age of 10, my brother and I had various sailing boats. The first one was made by our father. He was always in charge of the maintenace and my brother and I helped of course. When We decided to sell our boat our lives had developed, I lived too far away from the boat to just go sailing for an afternoon. After a few years I got my first Morgan and to this day, I do not regret the change. One factor is that the Morgan is in the garage, ready for a ride, no ahead planning needed. I like that freedom. Also, I think I am more a drver than a sailor.
Good luck with your endeavors!
Have fun.
Bert
