The crew of the C&C 35 Starfire did the same thing years ago in Victoria BC after
the Offshore race. Luckley there were 4 Rusty Nailed fueled sailors vs one big native Canadian Indian.
We received a standing O from the passagers and crew of the Blackball ferry.
Sail on, crime fighter RIP.

Venture 21 disp.1150# , draws 5.5 feet, 400# keel with lead on the bottom.

Bolt the keel down baby she'll fly.

 

 

Is that a planing hull?

 

What's it rate?

Yes it planes very nicely. has a hull shape similar to a Flying Dutchman or Intl. Tempest.

Oh and companionway hatch boards are useless if they are not tied in place. The knock down event that sinks you is also the event that dumps your unsecured hatch boards over the side. ;-)
