Todays suggestion is for a Horstman TriStar Something like the 37xrc would take your rig, the rudder could kickup, straight shaft inboard, wing...
I'll see if I can get some results but the Cross 40 was basically a longer 38. These boats aren't speed burners but good sailors for cruising. It...
Send me a pm when the plans roll in and I'll email you. I might have some 37 material here I'll ponder for suggestions. We can go dark to keep...

Ah now, mankind is one monkey floating on a log in the sea of space. Get the balance wrong and it is a swim to the end. Sort of the theme these...
