    It is fantastic in light to moderate air with its turbo rig. Modified deep eliptical rudder and finely faired keel. The boat was definately optimised for lake st. clair light air conditions. Well cared for boat. The new O is the previous Farr 40 Solution, which also appears to be in fine shape. Little bit of bottom work and she will be ready to go.

    There was an Olson 30 or maybe a bit smaller at my old yacht club.

Gave it to each of the crew by sharing it out as a thank you for all the great years of sailing. Cool guy. Also that boat was absolutely unbeatable.
